Mike sent me a couple of these and I couldn't believe how light they are... Virtually nothin'... I'm putting one of these bad boys on my own car.

I can vouch for its lightness and strength. I was able to do chinups on it when alex wasn't looking.

Question. Why did you make a cf bar that needed to be bolted to the ends? Why not just build a one piece bar out of alum and have it stiffer?

Dude, you'd never know.. I have so much CF on my car now that I might well be in the pre-qualifying stages of Balla'ism.

correct me if I am wrong, but with the 996 series, a strut brace is completely useless and offers zero benefit due to the chassis construction design. Nice looking part though for dress up....
