Tanabe Strut Tower Brace installed on Coupe

I put my Tanabe Q50 strut tower brace on today, if it's installed correctly it makes a noticeable difference. Not huge, but noticeable. The car doesn't grab ruts in the road the way it used to without the bar, and it feels tighter. It looks cool too. Thanks again to Brad(blnewt) for being the one to try the fitment of this piece, it fits perfectly. I have it adjusted pretty close to the engine and it just barely touches the hood liner. Here's some pics

Nice job! Looks great w/ those red MAF tubes. For the price the quality & fitment is very good and having the threaded adjusters makes it easy to get a good install. Spread the word!
BTW, how long did it take to get yours from the time you placed the order?

I ordered it off of Ebay on 8-17, and had it here on 8-22. The seller had one left so I jumped on it, and I'm glad I did. I agree that for the price it's a heck of a deal. Initially I was a little skeptical of the effect it would have, but it seems to be alot more rigid than it looks in pictures. I'm impressed

Agree with blnewt, looks great with the tubes and even better with the grounding kit.
