pretty much everything else is in stock now too. i think i may finally have gotten a bot more of a handle on this. i'm definitely getting more organized.

by the way, this is the only brace on the market with designed in deflection to prevent the low grade OEM strut tower mount hardware from failing, as well as prevent the strut towers themselves from deforming. other braces out there are too stiff for the sheet metal and OEM hardware, and have been known to cause failures. some relief is needed. this one has .005" of lateral deflection designed into it. it's stiff enough to prevent the camber change, and provide noticeable handling improvement, but due to the limited deflection, not so stiff that you break things. the minimal vertical flex is deceiving, and has no measurable effect on the stiffening to the chassis that the brace provides.



it's also the only one that allows you to use the fuel rail cover without modification

Shipping to Holland would kill me, wouldn't it ?

and, be sure to add the firewall brace to your order. So many firewall cracks are showing up, this is an easy preventative measure.

How about blowing out that splitter??

SUMMER BRACE BLOWOUT SALE - flash - 08-28-2012

lol - it's already half the cost of the other popular splitter, and doesn't roll under the car like it does. how low does it need to be?

You also might look around at re-shippers. They have an address in the USA, so you ship there and they'll ship the package to your country when they get it. I've been using one that specializes in shipments to Chile with good results so far.

while i a not inclined to do that, i have no problem with somebody else hooking up their own method of shipping, making all the arrangement, and paying for it on their end. basically, if i can be a lazy sot and just hand the box to somebody and be done, i'm cool with a swallow picking it up

What kind of Swallow? African or European? I'm certain that the air speed velocity of a laden swallow would not allow it to carry a splitter from California to Holland...maybe someone from wrecklist will chime in...

Sorry Flash, need you postal code too to get a quote ; I typed 90049 for Brentwood and DHL gave me a quote for $ 58 ... Much better then your prices, isn't it ?



Would it be ok to have my courier do the pickup ?



Thanks, Frank

SUMMER BRACE BLOWOUT SALE - flash - 08-29-2012

i have no problem with your courier picking up. i have no problem with you making all the arrangements. of course you then assume all responsibility for tracking, claims and such, but it's not problem for me on this end



i'll email you my zip code
