As of yet I only have the ACS rear strut and have been in contact with ACS to get the front strut. Whether it helps or not is difficult to say since I never time by laps around the track. I just simply drive and have fun!! I can say there is no perceptible difference but its only obvious that rigidity is at least slightly improved from before and this generally is good when taken together with a slightly lowered ride, lower center of gravity, etc…

Hearing rattles doesn't mean that your chassis has lost its stiffness. Rattles can be caused by many things that have nothing to do with stiffness. Anyway, you did end up starting a good thread regardless.

For certain things I generally go with ACS because I know they us the best materials and they do R&D before they put something out instead of just looks (And their looks usually really suck lol). The ACS front strut tower, whenever it becomes available is a very nice piece indeed. I Don´t know anyone who makes sway bars yet, but I am up for them when they become available.

I also would like to install sway bars and strut braces... I had sway bars on my 540i and they made a night and day difference. So sways are a must for me because I hate body roll.

It does say in the magazine that AA has a strut brace for the M3 but its wrong, I contacted AA and they said that its wrong, The AA strut brace is not yet available for the E9X M3...BMW-M-Mexico do you have GruppeM intake on your car? If so do you think that the intake sits higher than the OEM intake, especially the part that connects to the hood opening? I'm asking because if one of the Tuners makes a strut brace I wonder if it will not fit due to the GruppeM sitting higher than the OEM. I will be installing my GruppeM on Friday the 19th so I will measure and let you guys know that have the GruppeM if it indeed sits higher than OEM. Which I think will cause fitment issues of the strut brace.... I really would love the strut brace from BMWperformance, the carbon fiber one, my dealer said it will fit the E92 M3 but i doubt it will.
