Not seeing much lateral support on the front, too much vertical rise to get over the engine, but the rear one would be good to dry your chamois on. They look alright but you know they are only cosmetic. IMO

I agree they look crappy

anyone ever notice the black series c-63 has 2 pockets built in to the side paneling to install a rear strut brace. I doubt there is much of an advantage to it. you think of the cost of the car even if it costs another 50$ per car and was worth it they would've put it on. GL's and R's have them from the factory where as ML's do not. Not to mention how few people are actually going to track the cars and would be able to notice a difference.

Hi guys,

If you check they have the full program for our cars.
It will fit 2012 couper?

almost all those braces are pointless. They connect the subframes to the body. The subframes only flex on the bushings that they mount to the body. Im sure they increase alot of noise and vibration. The unibody braces - under the transmission tunnel are right next to the big transmission mounting bracket which does the exact same thing. The strut tower braces are probably the only thing that actually makes a difference. Now if someone made something more like subframe connectors to connect the front and the rear or google search miata butterfly brace that would probably actually be functional. I wouldnt waste your money. Not to mention some of these braces, i question what they would do if you got in an accident?

You have to be very careful with underbody braces. The engine and its supporting structure is designed to slide under the passenger compartment in the event of a frontal impact. Guess where it's going if you've braced the underbody in the wrong area?

Renntech sell both a front and rear strut brace.This three piece strut brace stiffens up the rear section of your vehicles chassis during high speed cornering.
The center piece of the brace is made of carbon fiber because of its optimal strength and lightweight properties.
Quick disconnecting pins are integrated within the brace design to easily regain cargo space.
