I was installing my y pipe today



when I noticed that the brace that sits just behind the motor and the plastic under tray was very heavily rusted on one side. I am looking to find a new after market one, but I’m only finding them for RWD models only. Does anyone know if they sell them for the X sedan?

 

Welp i just found out how much the cross member costs from the stealership, and its almost $900 cad for the part alone! 544B2EG300

Or you can take it out and sand it really well get rid of surface rust and paint it black.

 

I would but as you can see in the middle where that rust is, I can literally poke through the majority of the metal, as most of it rotted away

 

A quick google search found them for about $560 or so: ebay and other places

 

I’ve looked at website that sell them for $300-500 but they’re saying it for the rhd European models. I’m not sure if anything is different when comparing it to our models.

That one is a little cheaper at 755 without shipping but they only ship to the states sadly. I hate living in Canada 😂

I found they ship internationally for about $120 or so (unknown if U.S. $ or Canadian)

 

now I’m getting somewhere!
this site is slightly cheaper than the dealer.

I’m gonna sand the rust down and paint it, if it does not last looks like I’m buying it from here! Thanks

Also just found this if you change your mind on sand/paint. They do ship to Canada (much cheaper than other website). I am waiting to hear back from them via email on which parts actually replace the front subframe. Ill keep this updated when I hear back

 

i believe the front one is for the rwd models only

 

Oh man, this is what the problem living on canada lol or winter is harsh. iff you see under my car its worst I have to get it undercoated soon before winter

 

oh yea man it’s sucks. My friend with a 2008 G35S his cross member is aluminium from factory so he never has to worry about it rusting away.

 

flipmode007 - did you ever find a better solution to this? I was just under my X and I have rust on the front brace. Nothing much anywhere else, just the brace (and the brake calipers it seems). Whatever supplier must have done a poor paint job and with X's getting used for winter driving, a bad combo.
