Does anyone besides Dinan make strut bars for X5's

Hey, I was looking for a strut bar too. The Dinan one is alot of money. I stumbled across this, but have not heard anything about it.

Use the "search" button and you'll see that a few of us had bought this bar from an ebay seller last year for about $175 shipped.

Like I've mentioned in my post from the link you've provided, the ebay bar is mostly for look over function. It's not as rigid as I've liked, but I guessed it's slightly better than not having a bar at all. I would go with the Dinan bar if you can find one for less than $300 bucks.

1. Installation was pretty simple.
2. I got the gunmetal since I wanted some contrast from my sapphire black engine bay.
3. See the picture from the link that zerochief provided.
