anyone have this on their xA or xB? how do you like it, it seems like a very great deal since its not too expensive and it looks nice with that deep dark red glossy look. im considering getting this and just wanted to see if anyone had any input that would change or enhance my decision... thanks :bow:

i hear from most of the post here that it really doesn't do much for performance, but if you like it, then buy it. The rear struts make a difference and the rear sway bars do.

Glossy? More like anodized. It's a quality piece, but it does nothing in terms of handling. Perhaps if you have sticky tires, good shocks/struts, rear sway, and chasis brace it might help with the over all package.

Good way to blow $100 I guess. Happy with mine.

thanks for the feedback.... by glossy i just meant its a nice shiny color. i want to get the TRD but it seems like my injen CAI would be in the way

I am a newbie when it comes to imports and tuning so this is probably a very dumb question. How do you install a tower brace? Do you need to lift the front end so the suspension isn't under load? The instructions that came with my Tanabe brace are in Japanese. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks.
