    Yeah, the prices from Luis (not Lewis) that I got last week were a bit odd vs the ebay ones - the braces seemed very close or slightly higher and the anti-roll bars considerably cheaper than the ebay pricing (from the Malaysian seller).

    I'm happy to support the distributor.

    Has anyone seen how the rear strut brace mounts up, yet? I'm tossing up whether to add that to my list.

      Ha ha yeah I saw the spelling only after second email. Sorry Luis!

      Looks like one bolt or insert either side so the same as the Forge.

            Is it possible to DIY the front sway bar install? I know it involves dropping the subframe etc. I was quoted $200-$350 for labour from Volkspower.

              how would you like orders confirmed? Money transfered to where and when by? Expected delivery/receipt of goods?

              I can confirm my interests now. (upper front strut brace, lower front cross member and lower rear. That rear strut bar doesn't appear sufficiently straight forward for easy install/removal and appears to need cutting up the interior)

              Thanks for instigating this.

                I believe they are quite straight forward once you've dropped the subframe. But that's enough to turn me off doing it, pr1ck of a job unless you've the right hoist. The front wheels would also need to be on the ground/normal compression to bolt it up I think. Would need an alignment once done.

                  Yeah, it does sound like a PITA. Don't think I want to pay $350 to install a $200 part either

                  To those that have a FSB, how much did you pay?

                  Guess I will give it a miss.

                    Thanks Sean! So I think the deal is all the braces can be sent to a contact for each state for distribution to keep the postage down.

                    The postage charges are $119 for everything if we do it this way. We can then just divide that by how many members confirm their order. I have asked Luis if the members in his city can pick up directly from him to reduce this amount even further. Just waiting for a reply email about this and will also ask about availability. From there we will work out payment etc.

                    Hope this suits everyone?

                    Cheers!

                          It just arrived yesterday and will be fitted in a couple of weeks while I'm away (along with some other front end stuff so the subframe has to come out anyway )

                                Can I please get your confirmations now on what braces you want so I can calculate shipping. I will update these on the first page.

                                Thanks!
