I have comptech x brace, very light weight. It is chromoly. But oil change is alittle messy because it is close to the oil drain bolt, the trade off it has the highest ground clearance of most x braces on the market. I wonder if it has enough clearance for the pwjdm carbon underpanel.

I'd like a few people with more than one brace to post up pictures of them fitted.
I'd like the brace that goes over the front struts at the top, yet crosses down to the lower front subframe by asm, but i don't know if it'll clear the mase turbo kit.
I'd also like the brace that goes on the rear subframe that links to, i think, the back of the rear diff, but again, next to no-one appears to have it fitted.
Anyone?
On the subject of the lower x brace by spoon, i'd have thought the one sold by muz was better from an oil change pov but not necessarily strength.

The rear brace you're talking about is made by Beatrush. I've had their stuff on other cars before, it's top of the line.
