iv not long had the cusco one that i picked up for £55 needs stripping back and little welding, but for the money id say there more noticable than a strut brace

The only issue with them seems to be clearance with larger-bore exhausts.

Having had a couple of bent wishbones, I like the idea of them; they hold everything nice and straight under the car (and would have prevented me doing damage when one of my wishbone bolts was stripped and pulled-out letting the wheel grind into the arch). I just can't convince the wife that I should spend money on one.

If you want a stiffer chassis then it does help a little, but just to buy it on its own isn't really going to make masses of difference.

You are best having front and rear strut braces accompanying the under brace; also if your car is quite low, you have to take into consideration speed humps.

I run a 3” system and the Whiteline unit missed it by about 5mm, however I think the Cusco unit is not as accommodating.

waste of money for a road car if lowered!
soon as they hit something they snap at the lugs and therefore do precisely zilch except rattle about lol

if a track car then good bit of kit

I've got a whiteline underbrace lying about, and I'm wondering if I should slap it on. My car is a daily driver, but it's just lowered about 25/27mm.
Would I run into problems? Of course I'd have to stay away from the most aggressive speed bumps, but..

And does fitting it require wheel alignment afterwards?
