Giampiero,

You never called me for payment on the spoon braces. I think I'm in on the next shipment, but I never heard back from you.
Just wondering if I'm part of the order that's arriving.

Drop me a line to let me know.

thanks

To those who installed this brace:

Did you have the car raised for this
thing to be installed? Or a simple
jack with stands suffice?

How much noise does the x-brace reduce? Does it quiet all of the low RPM vibrations and heat shield noise?

I guess you wouldn't want to install one of these without a front bar as well. Is the Spoon bar better than the rest or designed to compliment the x brace?

I used ramps to raise the front of the car in order to install the X-brace, but using jack stands will work too.

I believe it was 7 lbs with the packaging, so less by itself.
