e36 subframe reinforcement - Drifting forum

Anyone local in the Dorset/Bournemouth area able to do this for me or recommend a place thats cheap?

It basically involves removing the rear subframe, welding on 4 plates to subframe mounting points.

Thanks in advance...

Seen all those links too mate, been reading lots in to this. I don't want to do it myself as it'll end up sat on the drive for months on end with a siezed/snapped something or other. Going to ask a couple of a local garages see whats what.

Any quotes are good too though.
