It's very shiny, but it's still just another "Me Too!" brace that fails to address the issue of shock adjustments and increases the leverage to the shock towers. The tie in points for the bracing should be as close to the shock towers as possible, a la OEM. At least the ends aren't floppy, like some of the other braces, but I don't see anything that makes it better than the competition.

Looks cool, but I think adjusting my Tokicos would be even more of a pain than with stock.

What do you guys think of Mazdaspeed version? Plenty of access. It costs a lot more as well.

I really like the mazdaspeed four point. it has the master cylinder brace for rhd. If you cut it off and weld it to the other side it'd be perfect.
