Got my plate a couple of weeks ago, and only today was able to get it mounted at the shop.
Jeff----
Very impressed. Its what should have been there from factory. 
Immediately noted the stiffening effect on the first corner, maybe it was just me though.
But, as the miles went on through the first ride, I swear the car was not flexing as much over the bummmps and during spirited lane changes. Especlally noted was that the rear end had much less tendency to go straight, causing more steering input. Now, the rear track just effortlessly follows.
Also, seemed cooler at the console, but then it was 45d outside. Can't wait to test that part this summer.
Elite's service was as good as it gets--high standards/quality part, and fast shipping.
