i machined my own, made of aluminum and 12mm thickness, which i measured was good for my ride of 1.5"-2.0" lower than stock
for cars lowered about 1.0"-1.5" i would recommend 8mm-10mm thickness
it does eliminate the front bumpsteer by moving the pivot point of the toe links to match the same arc movement on the control arms when your car is lowered
here is a pic
let me know if anyone is interested

I'll probably just make my set on my CNC plasma. it's pretty simple.
patiently waiting for your impressions

I got some. I made them on my CNC. Mine are different, The difference is that mine come in 3mm spacers that you stack to your alignment specification.
I'm not an expert on alignments, but there are 3 invisible circles that that your suspension creates. The spacers help align your circles again after lowering.
These spacers are not "one size fits all". For exsample you can NOT expect a car that is lowered .8" to use the same 10mm spacer as a car lowered 2.5". If you do you are still miss alining your invisible cirlces. Make sense?
You get the 3mm spacers with bolts and take them to your alignment place. They will determine how many you need.
