TomatoSoup,
I would love for you to have one, but in all honesty if you already have the DDM brace, in my humble opinion not necessary.
The beauty of mine is it simplicity and also out of the way. It serves the same purpose, as the DDM and WERKS, but it accomplished it with a more straight forward engineering design.
I will put you down if you still wanted.
By the way IMAJ is selling his that he never use, not sure if he ever got in contact with Odiaz.

PS: Elff thanks for the the above post and your comments.

Went to a local car show the other day and a guy there noticed the LV brace. He asked what it was and I told him that is ties the two frame rails together and that a fella in south Florida makes them for our cars. He thought it was a cool idea and asked if it made a difference. "Yes it does", was my reply.
Just trying to do my part...

Yes, that is what I said.
That is just my opinion, since they both serve the same purpose, just like the one from WERKS.
Mine is the least expensive (Done for the forum) and pretty easy to install.

Do it

In less than 15 minutes of install time you will
Increase your kappas high speed stability
and
significantly reduce front roll when entering turns.

This mod works and for the price is an incredible bargain.

Installed mine tonight. 15 minutes, easy instructions, 13mm socket and done... Brace looks like it was from factory (in an upgraded  ZOK-LV way). Someday I'll get on the road and test thoroughly... Thanks LV

With my vertigo damn I miss my car.   :barf:   I feel like getting her something to let her know I still love her. LV if there's a slot available or opens up soon I'll take any colour you have. I'd like to get red if I need to wait for the next order.

Can you let me know USPS shipping (not FedEx) to Canada, postal code L1L 1C5.

Dr. Gronk.
They are old sold.
You can have RED but it may take a while.
My fabricator did me a favor on this last batch and let me do 5 instead of the minimum of 10 he requires.
For Canada I always ship USPS.
