    Well I purchased a Techco Tower Strut Brace unfinished because I am not into the red color that they have them in. So I took the thing about and took the brace over to a local metal anodize shop to have it done in black. It is hard to take a good picture of it but this is the best that I can do for now.

    Then I took the end links over to a powder coater that is about 2 blocks away from my job. Here are a few pictures of them done.

    I will have more pictures of it installed tomorrow. SoCalRT needs to modify the custom firewall panel that he made for me, so that the brace sits flush with the factory brace.

    That's going to look really good on the car. How much did all that run you?
