Hey gang, since I don't want any less ground clearance than stock, nor any added ride stiffness, nor NVH, decided to just add rear sub-frame braces, and a front 2-point G-brace, to improve handling a little. I'm not sure if the front G-brace helps with cornering, so please let me know, since I won't track, launch, or stop hard on this car. The G-brace would surely make oil changes harder, so only want to install it if it'd actually help with cornering/handling. The rear sub-frame braces should help for sure, especially if there happens to be bumps on the curves. Hope to get rid of the wallowing in those situations.
If you approve of my 2 handling improving choices, Steeda makes a black 2-point G-brace, so I have at least that option (I'd only buy it if I can find the rear braces, since the rear is looser than the front, so makes no sense to 'unbalance' the car even more IMO). But for some unexplained reason, Steeda's rear sub-frame braces are gray, which is a deal-breaker for me. TJ said they cannot make them black at this time, so they're out. Please post links of any others you know of. Oh, and I don't want to loosen the sub-frame, so those options (like BMR, I think) are also out, even if they're black. Hopefully there will be a suitable black option I can buy now .
If nobody makes good rear braces similar to Steeda's but in black, I'd leave the car alone for now, and wait until they (or somebody else) makes those braces in black, and buy both items at the same time. Thanks gang.
