update:
i bent my front one, you might want to look into the cusco one. they seem a bit better.
also with the front brace installed, it makes hard things to do even harder.
i.e like getting to the tranny drain/fill bolts. the brace takes up alot of space that normally would be free to get a wrench in there. also you know how you hate getting oil on your header from removing the oil filter? well now its harder to reach to get the oil filter and after it drips onto the header pipe.......it drips onto the brace
i still like it though. i might take it off and mallet it back straight
