And you wanted

to sell me that v-brace. Silly Dan. See how good it looks? Those extra holes will save you some weight.

did the vbrace make a big difference at all? I already have cusco front and rear strut bars which didnt really make a huge difference in the feel of the car.

Where did you get the parts from? How come you guys don't ask me for parts? I am an official CUSCO US Improrter.

yea we're talking about the STRUT bars and not sway bars. So does the v brace worth the $120 or so pricetag?

In a nut shell......

Just put the brace on the strut bar, mark where the holes are, drill the holes and tight'n everything up.

True True... but the silver metal piece that goes under the car has a curve on the one side, does this go left or right... and when you put the blue piece on top of that silver piece with the curve, if you flip it around one side is flush and the other side is not...
