Weighing up lower brace options...
I am trying to decide which front lower brace to go for.
Currently the Ricks accessories billet brace if the favorite but if the Muz/Whiteline unit is significantly lighter - I might consider that.
The Ricks unit is about 6lbs - anyone tell me how much the Whiteline unit weighs, or the Spoon and Cusco for that matter...?
TIA

you're in luck, I just received my whiteline brace last week.
it is 3.7 lbs according to my supposedly very accurate Soehlne digital scale. I weighed it 2x, came up exactly same weight each time.
one thing though-- it's not going to be as pretty as the Rick's billet brace. the whiteline is all welded, and I couldn't honestly describe the welds as perfect or anywhere near. but, since it's hidden under the car, I guess it doesn't need to be pretty-- it just needs to get the job done.
and from what I've heard, it does so nicely. that's why I bought mine.

I'm also currently trying to decide which of the two to purchase. Rick's seems nicer, but is also $100 more expensive. Three pounds isn't a whole lot of difference, anyone have experience on the fitment and effectivness of both?
