Default where exactly is the tC front support located

Somebody asked me where underneather the tc is the front support located cause they wanted to lift the front of the car up to place jackstands and was told to use the front support not the suspension to life the car up...


how would you lift the back up you get the jackstands on the side..do you lift the back suspension up or can you lift on the side if the car and place the jack stands where the arrows are

i hope im not confusing anyone

the front support is a lil convex shaped metal piece right after the plastic under-covers. if your centered and looking from front to back...you'll see it...as for the rear....i just lift each individual side

umm if you want, but i've been using it for oil changes without wood for the past 40k miles with no problems...there is a bolt head near by that you want to stay off of...you wouldnt want to scar the head up too badly.
