<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">BODY BRACE DO?</span></p><p>Modern 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.</p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-weight: bold;">The new RacingLine Rear Body Brace solves this issue by locking the crucial hard points together.</span></p><p><br></p><p>- The 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.</p><p>- By 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.</p><p>- Despite the added stiffness, this improved handling performance comes without sacrificing any ride quality or introducing any additional noise, vibration, or harshness into the cabin.</p><p>- The 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.</p><p>- Compatible with rear seats up or down (or removed altogether). The full interior can be maintained even with the installation of the Rear Body Brace.</p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-weight: bold;">PRECISION ENGINEERED FOR PERFECT PERFORMANCE.</span></p><p>- All mounts are CNC 5-axis machined from solid billet</p><p>- Aerospace-grade T6-6061 Aluminium used throughout</p><p>- Top mounts located into rear seat mounts</p><p>- Lower mounts lock into cargo tie-downs</p><p>- FEA-developed triangulation design maximises stiffness whilst keeping weight down</p><p>- 3K twill weave carbon fibre ultra-stiff link bars</p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-weight: bold;">CONFIRMED APPLICATIONS</span></p><p>VWR8130S3-SEDAN</p><p>Audi 8V A3 / S3 / RS3 4 DOOR SEDAN/SALOON MODELS AWD QUATTRO ONLY</p><p>Audi A3 2013-2020 8V / 3 & 5 door</p><p>Audi S3 2013-2020 8V / 3 & 5 door</p><p>Audi RS3 2015-2020 8V / 5 door</p><p><br></p><p><span style="font-weight: bold;">ONLY for the 4 door sedan models – No cutting or drilling is required for fitment, so this modification is completely reversible.</span></p><p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Please note: this is different to the Audi A3/S3/RS3 3 and 5 door Sportback models (VWR8130S3).</span></p>
