Rear shock tower bars for the E60 are tough to find - especially at a reasonable cost. I have a design posted in the thread below for comments. Check it out if you are interested.
If we get enough interest I will post it in the group buy, and have some units manufactured. This is great compliment to the UR strut bars that have been shown to really tighten up the E60 chassis.

I'm really looking forward to one of these for myself. I am about to have about 410HP at the wheels and the chassis strengthening has been a big improvement. Keep in mind however, one bar here and there doesn't do a whole lot - kinda takes a system of bars working together so you don't just move the twisting and flexing somewhere else. I have also noticed a big reduction in the rattles and other noises in the cabin.
