Front/Rear lower Braces

Hello does anyone know where to get front and rear lower braces for my RX-7 FD? I would like to purchase them in the US (not made here really). But so far all I have found for the rear is a place in the Netherlands that I am not really comfortable ordering from w/o knowing anyone who has. Thanks in advanced!
Here are the ones they have to offer:

also since ive looked into this too, it depends on what year you have.... i believe those auto exe braces only fit on 94+ not the 93's (which i have).... are theyre any under braces for the 93's?

FD is the 3rd Generation RX7. FD is the beginning part of the chassis code. FC is the beginning part of the 2nd Generation RX7 chassis code:

Another thing to add to the purchase list .

Shame the front strut brace is so ugly. Looks like it would get in the way for changing plugs etc too.

Autoexe braces are pretty good. Carbing also makes a set and Do-engineering makes 2 sets one made o f steel and the other of aluminum! I think the best overall was the one made by "Deck Mechanical Power" but I've sent them an e-mail and they don't produce it anymore. It was a combination of Autoexe and Mazdaspeed braces
