how did you add one to your car if they are still in the experimental phase? did you just put one from a convertible on your coupe? that would be a good idea except that i have heard you can not lower your coupe and have a convertible x brace on there at the same time. i htink that is one of the main reasons they are inventing one that will

Well....actually yes you can...but yea I do scrape a lot! I'm looking foward to a stiffer x-brace along with more clearance though.

Dave, I want one. Are you going to be in the St. Charles county area anytime soon, could save shipping cost if you are ? Was hoping you would be at Wentzville this weekend, but I heard the autocross was cancelled. I will try to call you today or sometime this weekend.

I installed my cross-bar this evening, it really stiffens the middle of the car. The cross-bar is the perfect compliment to the camber-brace, get both you won't be disappointed.

Dave's x-brace is still in the developemental stage. It will go on the underside of your car, similar to the convertable's factory x-brace.
