Autoexe 6 Point Strut Brace

I was wondering if there is any sort of installation guide to assist me with installing this brace on a LHD FD. I have only seen pictures of the brace already installed and one thread from years ago stated you need to make minor alterations to the brace. Has anyone had experience installing the front brace?

None whatsoever, I do not have CC though. If you do, you may have clearance issues. This thing fit like a glove when I installed it. You just have to drop loosen the strut tower bolts and drop the struts down and this thing slides right in to place.

How many holes did you drill to install it?


Any improvements in steering response after install?
