Posted: Mon Jun 29, 2009 2:58 amthey just tightin up the body a little... some JDM type R's came with these... you could just possibly make your own seeing it how it connects 3 points to make it more solid.

Posted: Mon Jun 29, 2009 5:58 amThey go on underneath the front fenders. They should "bolt on", but as with anything from eBay fitment is probably a little sketchy and you'd have to work a little to get them on.

Shoot I think I'll get some measurements, some metal and borrow a welder and fab me some.
Do they really even help with tightening up the body?

you know when you have a large, heavy engine and the rear's stiff, then you corner, the front's softer a bit so it flexes then the rear just drives you into a spin? the fender braces help to combat the oversteer brought about by too-heavy engines.
or something like that. i need nicotine (off-topic sorry)
Posted: Tue Jun 30, 2009 12:58 pmMakes sense just haven't really heard much about people using these. I think I'll make me some since my hatch is out of comission anyway.
