Spoon X brace compatible with after market lower strut bars? I'm not sure how the x brace mounts and wonder if other than stock front lower bar will allow x brace mounting; I have the Neuspeed lower bar. I'm thinking it wouldn't work. BTW, the Neuspeed attached with stock bolts.

Excellent picture, Krazik-s2k, and it helps quite a bit. The stock indeed was replaced by the Neuspeed, but Neuspeed is thicker than stock at mounting point, so the mounting point for the x-bar would be lower than if stock were there. I will study the pix in more detail after checking the Neuspeed again.
Thanks much!!

Hey guys,
Sorry for being such a Johnny-come-lately, but that's the first time I saw the Spoon X brace. It looks like a real nice piece. How much does it weigh?
FYI, when I saw the Mugen front undertray, I think it used similar, if not the same, mounting points for the structural bars to reduce the tray's flex. I wonder if it does a similar job in reducing front chassis flex... If so, those that buy the Mugen front lip spoiler will also get the added benefit!

I am not sure on the exact weight, but it is light.
I would think that the X bar would provide better stabilty than a flat tray, but I never have seen mugen's tray.

Krazik-s2k-
The Mugen undertray is a polyurethane (PU) molded deflector, held in place by the braces I mentioned before.
