I don't know if this should go on the Ebay finds forum, but it seems that our friend attractspeed is back as a registered user on ebay..I sent him several messages inquiring about the availability of the strut bars and possibly having the BMW logo. I know that he currently has one up on auction so whoever wants in better get theirs while it last he said that they cannot put the BMW logo anymore on the strut bar because of the BMW trademark.... they can get in trouble for that
. what else ?...at the moment they are only selling the black aluminum and not the gunmetal color like f355b purchased..

Last but not least for those who are wondering if it will fit without modification.. see this link below..
