Matched Cusco Strut brace installed

[domgtb25t]

They are painted in diamond grey to match they body he sprayed and baked them.
He said he etch primed first. I was supposed to wait a week before instaling them to make sure the paint had cured. That was so the bolts would not wreck the paint when tighened but I was to impatient. It did not seem to wreck the paint but it did scratch when I touched the body near the wiper box if I was to do it again I would def let it cure for they week.

Has anybody installed all of the above what are your thoughts?.

Yes yes and yes, i have got the front h brace, rear lower arm brace, front chassis reinforcement power brace, brake stopper, front and rear sways, rear strut brace......... and how front and rear endlinks coming soon. Most of these parts were fitted at the same time, loved the final result it had on the handling, one other brace is the ladder style brace which is fitted directly under the driver and passenger flooring.

Get the lower arm bushes fitted,...... one of the best suspension mods to get.

do you track your car????

of course the above was supplied by the bloke they call Phat Gt..........

No I don't track it but I was thinking about doing so. Only thing that worries me is I need the car on the road 24/7 for work ( i am a field engineer) so if I bugger it up I will be in trouble

my car is my daily too 62 000km on clock and 8 tracks in the bag ... ... you just need to learn your limits and your car's limits on the track.

I am looking into getting both the Cusco front H and Cusco 4 point rear Braces along with the Cusco front and rear sway bars of PHAT these along with the Strut brace currently installed should make everything heaps better correct me if i m wrong. Has anybody installed all of the above what are your thoughts?

I have Cusco front strut brace, Cusco front underbody brace, Cusco rear sway bar, rear heavy duty mounts. Just running standard front sway. My opinion is get all of the parts that you mentioned, definitely worth it. Phat is definitely the guy to talk to, great prices.

I have the rear underbody bracing sitting in my cub board but I don't think that counts.

Great looking strut brace man, I would love to do the same to mine. I think the cusco blue stands out a bit too much especially when you have the Jdm abs cover and battery cover.The black colour is much more subtle. I wonder how much it would cost to get a paint shop to paint it for me?
