Our beautiful billet and carbon Rear Body Brace reinforces the bodyshell at its weakest point for a more precise and pleasurable drive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTIGHTEN UP YOUR DYNAMIC RESPONSES\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eWHAT DOES IT DO?\u003cbr\u003e\nModern cars like the MQB platform run a pretty stiff laser-welded bodyshell. Up front, the chassis is very rigid between the suspension tops, but at the rear there is much more chassis flex which negatively affects vehicle handling in hard use, especially with stiff suspension. That’s why the Clubsport S Golf gets a factory rear brace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe new RacingLine Rear Body Brace solves this issue by locking the crucial hard points together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe RacingLine Rear Body Brace uses solid billet aluminium mounts secured into beautiful, ultra-stiff carbon fibre link bars drastically stiffening the rear of the chassis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBy reinforcing and tying the rear strut towers together, the brace helps to maintain proper suspension geometry under heavy cornering loads. Remove the bodyshell flex, and the suspension geometry can work as it was designed to do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDespite the added stiffness, this improved handling performance comes without sacrificing any ride quality or introducing any additional noise, vibration, or harshness into the cabin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe clever design means that installation is simple, using existing body mounting points with no drilling and no removal of trim required, and is completely reversible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIMPORTANT:\u003cbr\u003e\nNot to be used as a mounting point for seatbelts or race harnesses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCONFIRMED APPLICATIONS\u003cbr\u003e\nVWR8130S3-SEDAN\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAudi 8V A3 \/ S3 \/ RS3 Only for 4 door sedan models\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWHAT’S IN THE KIT?\u003cbr\u003e\n4x Mounting brackets\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e1x Tensioning block\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e1x Carbon Cross Bar\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e2x Carbon Brace Bar\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAll required fitting hardware\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\n\u003cp\u003eWeight\t8 kg\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions\t110 × 36 × 44 cm\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RacingLine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51374680015165,"sku":"VWR8130S3-SEDAN","price":1169.3,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0857\/7548\/3197\/files\/1.3_dbbfe9fd-aa38-4921-988d-0e30169b0256.jpg?v=1773711619","url":"https:\/\/www.modsdirect.com.au\/products\/vwr8130s3-sedan","provider":"ModsDirect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
