LV if it is not too late, I would like a silver one. I have a 2007 NA w AC and auto trans. Should fit OK right?

Yes, there should be no problems.

This 7th order filled up fast but it could conceivably be some time before the next (8th) batch goes in. You won't regret getting in on this one but you might if you don't.
Just trying to do my part...

This is one of the best bang for the buck mods you can do for your car.
Well worth every penny and if you really drive your kappa the way it's designed, you will notice the difference on the first drive after the install

I just received my ZOK rear anti-sway bar today, and will install this weekend.  Can't wait to get this puppy on too.

LV, when abouts do you expect shipments to start heading out?  And when abouts will payment be required?

I send my fabricator and e-mail requesting to have them made and he usually takes about a week sometimes 10 days. After that is the powder coater and is another 5 days.

Carbon Sky, LV stated in post #10 of this thread the following,"I do not collect any money until the product is fabricated and powder coated."

He will let everyone know when the order is ready to ship and the money is due.

Yah, I know, but was looking for time frame, which he provided.

Thanks LV.

I though there might have still been some confusion so I thought I would try to clarify. The brace is great on the car.

I asked her why... she says all you do is "supervise" (her quotes, not mine)  :lol:


So, LV... it's Thursday (my time, anyway).  Fabricator going to get started on them next week?  I'd love to have it on the car for my first road trip after this deployment.  Headed to TOTD at the end of Oct  :drive:

Critter is occasionally too critical as a supervisor.  I believe that is why she has not contacted him.  She does not like the extream pressure Critter can impose.
Make the right choices now
