The J-Brace from M7 Tuning is exactly what people with the factory John Cooper Works intake have been waiting for: a brace that stiffens up the front end, protects the strut towers from mushrooming, and looks great to boot!
This is our best selling, best fitting and best looking strut tower brace for the R56 family of MINI Coopers. Customers and magazines have raved about its good looks, perfect fit and easy installation. And with all this you get a real performance adder. You will feel an immediate improvement in handling after installing the M7 Strut Tower J Brace. Guaranteed!
This M7 Strut Tower J Brace for the R56 is made from high strength 6061-T6 aluminum alloy billet material and precision CNC machined. Finish is a beautiful matte black anodize and a M7 logo proudly engraved in the middle of the cross bar.
It is designed to be compatible with the factory JCW Intake as well as many of the aftermarket intakes on the market. As with all of our strut tower braces for the R56, the J-Brace is modular and available as a cross-brace add-on for those that already have our M7 SRPs installed on their car.
The J-Brace has been slightly modified for the 2011-2013 model year MINI Cooper S to allow for better clearance to stock parts. This brace DOES NOT fit the base model Cooper (non 'S' model).
