sorry for the shitty pic i took it with my camera
looks and feels pretty solid, very lightweight

it came with 5 little envelopes, with 5 instructions but unfortunately none of them were in english.

i'm just curious though i thought it was supposed to come with washers and bolts? Dont the frame braces usually come with them?

i cant wait to install it as soon as my box gets back from the dealer.

i got my jic magic frame brace that looks very simular to the c-one brace. it also did not include any washers, bolts, or nuts. i had to use the stock hardware. i installed them over two years ago and still no problems. hope this helps

Can you take a couple close up pics of the mounting areas? I am thinking about making one at work, but I haven't seen the details of any, just pics like above. Thanks

Did you get it yet? I was thinking about one of them, under $70 right? Dude doesn't seem to want to answer my email about the TBS, so I might get a Frame brace.

hmm i randomly got a pm from him off scionlife and got the tbs less than a week later

btw the cusco type 2 frame brace in that pic is not the one for the xb

this is the cusco frame brace for the xb, its almost identical to the gtspec

the c-one is similiar but the weld points are a little bit different
the tanabe sustec under brace is completely different looking

i mainly chose the c-one because of the exclusivity and color... i love goooooooooooolllllllllllllllllllllllllldddddd
