    Presumably GENI only?

    That's a sh$t load of bracing. Will it help more with chassis stiffness or getting power to the ground? Both?

    IMO I wouldn't even bother about the front brace, towers are too close to the firewall to have any chasis twist ect, but they do look f**king cool!

    Rear brace would work a gem!!

    I can get 2 types of front strut bars, 1 rear strut bar, 1 middle chassis brace, 2 different styles of rear bumper brace (1 piece and a 2 piece), 1 front 4 point chassis brace, 1 lower structure chassis brace, 1 rear bumper chassis brace and 1 rear bottom brace.

    Please let me know which items would be more of a preference. Details of items added to 1st post.

    That's all just for the Mazda 3. I can get more for other models, including Mazda 2 etc.

    Thanks, Troy.

    Im thinking..... when looking at colours try to choose one that is not associated with another brand that way you will stand alone next to products out there already.

    Colours i can think of already (sway bars, springs and strutbars (not including shocks or coilovers))

    Silver = Whteline
    Light Orange = Kmac
    Red = Autoexe
    Dark Blue = GT Spec
    light blue = Lovels
    Yellow = King springs
    Pink = STI
    Black = OEM

    Ive not seen green, Purple, grey, white (actually i think i have seen white but cant remember brand)

    White would work best with just about any body color, I think. might seem plaIn jane, but black 2XS decal would show nicely

    I think its Taiwan. Sometimes I doubt China's ability, but, they are coming along nicely.

    I'm going to stick with their colour for now, then if things progress, I'll have them done in my choice of colour.

    My job involves alot of product sourcing, particulary from China, and I'd agree that on average, China is improving. We have a few very reliable suppliers, more reliable than alot of our Aussie ones.

    No group buy. I started an EOI 3 months ago. I never really heard anything back from you guys, so, I left it.

    I can order in specifc patrs for you if needed, You just won't get as good a deal as a group buy would have got.

    Let me know what you want via PM, I'll organise a price and you can make a decision from there.

    Thanks, Troy.
