You shouldn't have the problem anymore with the newer towers.

I broke more bulkheads with the new thicker towers...
One simple roll is sometimes all it takes.

I use a shock tower protector, rather than the bulkhead brace, but I've heard good feedback from users of the brace. I've never broken a bulkhead or tower since using the shock tower protector.

Have to add that reverse the screws will help as well. Then the tower won't dig in that much. I have no problems with my bulkheads. However, I'm probably going to run something like a Schumacher shock tower thing. Or make one myself.

Hi, I'm the maker.

1. Cleaner print. Could be indeed, but it's almost invisble on the car.
2. Mine are surely stronger. Nylon is a weaker material.
3. Mine are perfectly paintable
(4.) Mine are way cheaper, almost 1/2 of the price...
