i have recieved both and fitted the rear one, which is good and does indeed feel to of stiffened the rear up a little in the corners

i have not got round to fitting the front brace althoughit will fit with no clearence problems iv chosen not to do so as the polishing aint up to scratch and its a bit marked, so im picking up another at trax from them at the weekend

so if anyone sees someone carrying as mirror polished forge strut brace round at the show, this will most likely be me haha

will get pics up of the rear one in a bit too
