hi everyone
i bought the carbon brace like the one pictured above ,but once it was fitted it didnt look so cool, seems hard to find a nice one that dosent look it came from halfords ,back to standard one at the moment ,but that looks crap too .maybe im too picky but, but must be a nice one out there somewhere

Mine looks just like Marks Schnitzer one, .......just in 2x2 carbon :thumbs:

Its quite cool when its icy cold, as all the internal bracing, sort of latice work ish , is visible as the different thicknesses freeze at different rates.So you get the thinner parts icing up quicker than the latice walls , if that makes any sense :119:
Sorry but i dont have a supplier as it was on the car when i bought it :-D
