034Motorsport X-Brace Billet Aluminum Chassis Reinforcement, B8/B8.5 Audi A4/S4/RS4, A5/S5/RS5, Q5/SQ5, Allroad - 034-603-0008

034Motorsport is proud to offer our Billet Aluminum X-Brace Chassis Reinforcement Upgrade for the B8 & B8.5 Audi A4/S4/RS4, A5/S5/RS5, Q5/SQ5, and Allroad! The factory Audi front subframe brace is manufactured from multiple pieces of stamped steel, and allows for performance-hindering chassis flex under load. This torsional flex can result in improper suspension geometry and alignment when cornering, and leads to vague steering feel and lack of steering precision.

The 034Motorsport X-Brace is a billet aluminum chassis reinforcement to replace the factory front subframe brace to increase torsional rigidity, resulting in improved steering feel and handling performance. Machined in-house from T6-6061 billet aluminum, the 034Motorsport X-Brace is engineered to outperform the stock welded, stamped steel part and ensure that suspension geometry is not compromised by chassis flex under hard cornering. Weighing in at 8.2 pounds versus 7.8 pounds for the factory stamped steel part, the X-Brace adds significant strength and rigidity with a negligible effect on weight.

This chassis brace upgrade was thoroughly tested by 034Motorsport and independent Audi enthusiasts before release. Installation is very simple, can be performed in minutes, and is completely reversible.

Features:
  • T6-6061 Billet Aluminum Construction
  • CNC-Machined In-House
  • Clear Anodized Finish for Durability
  • Engineered to Replace Factory Front Subframe Brace
  • Drastically Reduces Chassis Flex When Cornering
  • Enhances Handling Dynamics and Performance
  • Improves Steering Feel, Consistency, and Precision
  • Will Not Cause Additional NVH Transfer Inside Cabin
  • Modular Design Fits Both B8 (Pre-Facelift) & B8.5 (Facelift) Models
  • Easy, Straightforward Installation!

  • Does Not Fit Cabriolet.
  • The X-Brace will fit the Audi RS5, however, due to a variation in the belly pan, it will block some mounting points for the plastic shield.
  • We recommend using new factory stretch bolts to install the X-Brace. Complete factory bolt kits are sold separately below.

My part doesn't have a fitment guide.

We're so sorry about that, but we're working on it! We list over 100,000 SKUs and we're updating them daily. Some products are uploaded without the fitment guides being built out. If you're unsure about product fitment, please email us via support@exoperformance.ca.

  • How do I know if you have an item in stock?

    In-Stock Products

    In Stock

    Items marked as "In Stock" are physically in our facility, so they're ready to ship when the order is placed. If all items in your order are "In Stock", then your order typically ships within one business day.

    Other Availability Modes

    We use several availability modes to most accurately identify when products will leave their home facility:

    Direct Ship This product is available and will be sourced from one of our suppliers. It may take up to three business days before it ships.

    Warehouse Transfer We receive the item, then we ship it to remain on time with the guaranteed delivery range chosen at checkout. It typically takes between 6 and 12 business days before it ships.

    Discontinued - No longer available This product has been discontinued by the manufacturer and is no longer available.

  • How do I know if a part will fit my car?

    We update our catalog daily to provide the most accurate fitment information possible. When shopping for parts, please use the “select your vehicle” car selector on the home page. Once you've selected your car, you can filter parts specific to it.

    Additionally, on each product page, we have a tab for fitment information. By clicking on "Fitment", you can scroll and verify the part you are about to add to your cart indeed fits.

    Furthermore, if you have a vehicle added to our vehicle selector and you are viewing a product page, you'll see fitment information below the "add to cart" button. If an item fits your car it will display "This Part Fits Your: Selected Vehicule". If an item does not fit your vehicle a message will display "This Part Does Not Fit".

  • What is a core charge?

    A “Core Charge” is similar to the deposit you might pay for a can or bottle of soda. In many states, to promote recycling, you are charged a deposit when you purchase a can of soda and you receive your deposit back when you return the empty can. Many automotive parts have Core Charges that work the same way as a soda can deposit. The most common car parts that include a core charge are alternators, calipers, steering racks, and fuel injectors.

  • What is MAP pricing? Why can't I get a discount on a MAP item?

    "MAP" pricing, or Minimum Advertised Pricing, means that the vendor set a minimum retail price that we're not allowed to violate. MAP items cannot be discounted because the decrease in price would violate that threshold.
