I'm looking for a front strut brace for my 435i in the UK. F32 strut braces appear readily available stateside but not here! I've only found F20 with N55 & F30. Wonder if these will fit?

F32 435i seem to be rarer than hens teeth! Anyone know where to get a reasonably priced one?

F30 and F32 the same... your engine also is N55 then those will fit. Just be sure the mounting on the shock tower have enough holes.... 3 bolt or 5 bolt.

Thanks. I know F32 has the N55 I should have made this clear. The Strut bars I've found advertised are for F20 N55 M135i. Or for F20 & F30's but aren't engine specific like this on ebay:- https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ALUMINIUM...item255b483d83

Damn ebay.... they always label them like that because the F20 and F30 have the same strut tower setup. So the only thing you have to worry is the mounting: old 3 bolt or the new 5 bolt.

The Engine is for the bar fitment... because if the bar is to low it will hit the engine cover or the plastic box next to the strut tower on some engine models.
