They look awesome! Can't wait to install them. What happened to the two bolts on the top over the wheel?
Is there any way to quantify how much stiffer they make the chassis?

So for installation you use the two bolts for the door and then weld the piece above the wheel to the body? Is that it or do you reccomend welding the brace as much as possible to keep it even more stiffer?
Thanks

I had not drilled them at the time of that picture.
For installation the bolts will be fine there is no welding required for these to be installed.

I forget what the fender looks like, will drilling be necessary for the two bolts above the wheel?

Yes simple install was a key point in the planning of this product.
Just remove the fender and two bolts bolt on the brace mark where you need to drill or just drill through the holes in the brace install bolts and nuts and your done.

I would jump on set immediately, but I think if I did, they would just sit in my garage for months and months like my subframe braces did. Plus I'm right in the middle of a resto on my 240. Maybe next month  |

Sean, I talked to you back in mid-May about some things...and I just emailed you back as well. As soon as I get a response to my email, I'll send money.
Also, anyone experienced these things yet? Any word on how effective they are?!
Can't wait to get these on my car!
