I've got a Tom's front upper and its good.

The lower is only two point so I used a Tanabe one instead.

What does the Tanabe one look like? Just wondering where else it braces too?

Is it like this:

Yeah thats it, front points go on subframe under the rad from memory.

Sweet- doesn't look to difficult to make: might give it a go.

Thanks mate

No it wouldn't be in round section, but the tanabe one is made in rectangular. I'm sure it won't make too much difference at the end of the day any additional stiffness is a bonus.............if you are trying to make the front stiffer? Stiffening the front will tend to make it oversteer.
