Post KLA Strut Brace Arrived

I must say, this is one nice peice of hardware. Of course, it will not be in the car soon to test the performance gains, but it sure does look nice.

One hell of a bar for the price! Great job Scott and the guys at KLA!

Thanks!!

Glad to hear it! I don't get to open mine 'til Xmas, and there's no point rushing to install it since the snow tires are on <img src="graemlins/beerchug.gif" border="0" alt="[cheers]" /> .

Yes, the KLA Brace is awesome! Packaging was great, fit is good, quality exceeded my expectations and the install was easy. Not to mention the price! Even at $150 this would have been a good deal. I didn't push it too hard because of the rain, but the front feels more solid in hard cornering. Chassis flex seems to be minimized. Whether this is a placebo effect is anyone's guess, but i'm pretty scrutinizing.

You guys obviously did your homework engineering this thing and it shows.

Scott-

1 thing, I would wrap the bar in bubble wrap as well as the mounting plates. Just a little protection.. mine has a few nicks and scrapes... nothing I am too concerned about.

Thanks again!

Hey Perry, I took some mothers aluminum polish and the couple of scratches were gone and the bar had a nice shine to it.

Guys,

Unfortunately, our supplier for the bar shipped them that way. There were some scratches. I've asked them to wrap for the next shipment. If anyone wants, I'll do an exchange on the bar.

I was too late for the first batch at $100...but when will the next batch at the normal price be ready to go? Any rennlist member discounts? <img src="graemlins/jumper.gif" border="0" alt="[jumper]" />

Just wondering, not in much of a rush as the car needs some maintenence work anyway...

Adrial,

I'm waiting on bars from my vendor right now. Have 10 coming in this week (hopefully today). Rennlist members get 10% off everything we sell until the end of Feb.
