Here’s an update... as of today

Lower Chassis
GT Spec front lower tie brace
OE AP2 front sway bar (powder coated red)
Cusco front lower sub frame brace
Cusco chassis brace (haven't ordered yet)
Cusco rear lower sub frame brace
T1R rear bump steer kit
Comptech rear sway bar (powder coated red)
Gt Spec rear lower sub frame brace (currently off the car until new exhaust arrives)

Upper Chassis
OE AP2 front rebar (powder coated sparkle blue)
4-point front upper tower brace (haven't ordered yet)
OE AP2 rear upper tower brace (powder coated red)

Once I order the 4-point stb and the cusco chassis brace, I'll install everything and take some pics to post up

PS - No one can seem to answer my question on the GT Spec front lower tie brace. When I 1st ordered it the picture that GT Spec supplied had the mounting location as the lower front underneath the OE front diffuser. But now they placed a new picture on their website that has it mounted mid chassis across the cat-converter...

What is the correct mounting location for the GT Spec front lower tie brace???

Haven't had a chance to get under the car and take some pics

Cusco chassis brace is in, but I havn't put it on yet cause the car is too low. I need to readjust the suspension. (I'm affraid of hitting something on the road and ruining the finish on the bar)



Here is a pic of a few of the braces before installation and when I got the sway bars back from the powder coater.





Look at the differance between the thickness of the Comptech vs OEM



AP2 OEM rebar, powedercoated cusco blue



GT SPec braces going on



Here is the one I posted earlier, its a teaser I took while the car was getting an alignment.



And here is one of the x-brace installed.



I am planning on swapping out the Cusco rear subframe brace for the Beatrush one in the near future and once the car goes up on the lift to install the Cusco chassis brace, I'll take some nice pics of the whole underbody.

And as of recent...
