Modern automotive components are tucked into the tightest of places, sometimes making it impossible to access fasteners with a standard socket or ratchet. A lot of times, this forces you to take your vehicle to a dealer in order to get routine service. The Schwaben Stubby Socket Driver is a specialty low-profile tool, designed specifically to give you access to previously untouchable fasteners. Put the power in your own hands with this kit from Schwaben. Free yourself from the dealer and do it all yourself!

The cooling system in any car is often a neglected when it comes to maintenance, by the time most owners do something about this failure has already arrived. The recommended service interval is every 2 years. Just like engine oil the additives used in coolant to keep corrosion down and maintain proper lubrication breakdown in the same way over time and milage. Reduce the cost later by keeping your cooling system healthy now, Schwaben tools make it easy to maintain.

Customize your start/stop button with this OEM quality replacement finished in Red. This button is a quick, fun project and it maintains the factory backlit illumination. If you are looking for a quick upgrade that will give your interior a race-inspired feel, look no further than this M-style start/stop button upgrade.

The F87 M2 Competition models are simply amazing to drive; don't let road debris keep you from enjoying the moment. These cars have so much packed under the hood to get you this experience it causes the oil cooler to be placed face-down to the road. This makes the cooler an easy target for impact, which can prove catastrophic as the stock belly pan is designed from a flexible plastic material. Turner's in-house engineering designed a skid plate to protect your oil cooler from these unfortunate situations while maintaining factory aerodynamics and fitment.

Over time, road grime, salt, and moisture take a toll on the factory rear leveling rod. The original equipment often corrodes, seizes, and eventually snaps-or worse, binds up and breaks your expensive headlight leveling sensor. With this issue in mind, we've engineered a heavy-duty, bulletproof solution designed to outlast the car it's installed on. Instead of brittle OE plastic that degrades and snaps over time, we engineered our rod from high-strength, flexible polyurethane. Paired with corrosion-resistant stainless steel ball studs, it guarantees smooth articulation and prevents the binding that destroys expensive sensors. Precision-manufactured for a perfect, bolt-on fit, this upgrade requires zero modifications to replace your fragile OEM unit. This is a direct-fit replacement for Genuine BMW part number 37146752797, restoring proper suspension-to-sensor geometry so your headlights adjust perfectly to changing loads and road conditions.

Designed for seamless integration, this kit delivers serious track functionality while keeping your BMW's cabin looking sleek and intentional. At the core of the setup is a heavy-duty 11-gauge steel base that completely eliminates flex during hard pulls, giving you a confidence-inspiring lever feel every time you kick the tail out. Thanks to precision 3D scanning and CAD development, the innovative bell-crank pivot positions the master cylinder longitudinally right next to the shifter. The result? Minimal center console trimming, simple brake line routing, and an OE+ finish that preserves your interior's aesthetic. Complete with a lightweight 6061 aluminum handle and Teflon-lined rod ends for silky-smooth, zero-slop operation, this kit is the most refined way to elevate your E9X drift build.

Schwaben products are characterized by simple, clever designs. Their wheel storage solutions may be the best examples of these qualities.

Not only does this skid plate provide superior impact resistance, but it also maintains the factory wheel liner mounting positions & maintains factory aero design, while still offering improved ground clearance over the OE belly pan!

When it comes to suspension tuning, especially in motorsport applications, adjustability, strength, and quality are all equally critical. Turner Motorsport, from years of experience at the highest levels of competition, has developed the single best solution for Non-M E8X and E9X RWD chassis with their new fully adjustable camber plates.

All of the adjustability with none of the sacrifice is what you can expect from the biggest name in BMW racing.

Extended periods of aggressive driving causes the amount of heat in the rotors to build up, & as the temperature of the rotors increase, the metal begins to expand. With solid rotors, this can lead to numerous issues such as warping of the rotors, unexpected cracking along the inner "ring" or friction surfaces, & increased brake fade. Turner's TrackSport rotors feature a full floating two-piece design & slotted grooves to allow smooth, consistent braking force & easy expulsion of gases & dust created by the brake pads & rotors under heavy braking.

Most BMWs come off the production line with less-than-ideal front camber to encourage understeer. This adversely affects handling and tire-wear by putting less of the tire's contact patch on the ground. The solution: add more negative camber. Turner Motorsport provides an ideal solution to easily add 2.5 negative degrees of camber to your E90, E92, or E93.

The guys at Turner Motorsport have developed an ABS High Kick Trunk Spoiler that transforms the look of your E46 coupe, all while keeping budget constraints in mind. Constructed from impact and UV resistant ABS plastic, this light and durable spoiler provides a sporty style that's sure to set your vehicle apart from the rest, without high price of an equivalent carbon fiber spoiler.

Some of the biggest issues when owning a BMW can come from cooling system components. Failure is seen with the plastic fittings and adapters from years of hot to cold temperature fluctuation. The N52 engine sees failure at the plastic adapter connecting the thermostat hose to the cylinder head, this adapter simply shears off at the end of the barbed fitting. Our engineering team decided a billet aluminum piece was a much better option to contend with the temperature fluctuation.

The perfect camber plate when you're looking for race performance with street comfort! In the past when you would have to choose the best application for your needs you were left with two choices, polyurethane with a softer ride and deflection or a solid mounted spherical bearing with no deflection and added NVH. The Turner hybrid camber plates use the polyurethane ring around the spherical bearing so you reduce the NVH and deflection leaving you with nothing but benefits instead of sacrifice.
