more important question is, how well does it fit
I hhave to find 4 half inch spacers for it to fit properly and flush. My brace is for my bling factor until i figure out thhe whole LCA business

bling is all i would have it for too lol polished
well polish it, send it to me and ill let you decide how you feel about it lol i just want it blank though. no need for it to say anything
unless it involves something being low. like scrape, oh s**t, idk. something along those lines lol

I will be polishing it..i got 4 flap discs today in class...start with a 40 grit grinding wheel to take of mill scale, then git it with 80 grip flap disc followed by a 100 and a 120. The rest will be polished by hand.
Hopefully installed or pics this weekend when i go home.

UPDATE!!
Here is the update i have been holding out on...
problem with the order was i used a different shipping address than my billing address and ICB Mototsports didnt like that so i had to replace the order and instead of shipping it to my apartment i had to ship it to my parents house 1.5 hours away!!..then when i replaced the order i forgot to include my wiring harness...pictures for the love of God!
OEM Parts or go home!!!
Harness will make these much easier to install and wire up! on my last civic i wired them up myself..and it wasnt the best job..
Pure sex once installed i cant wait!
Well as you guys seen my plans for the Subframe Brace in which i designed i have THEM cut and only one is grinded down so far. They came out decent but not perfect but hey i can fix them with a little TLC and grinding! i have 2 for sale and will possibly make more if people are interested..PM for details
Here are the pics and i will answer any questions anyone has.
First stage of grinding is taking the mill scale off! its a thin coating of rust/oxidization of metal.Above is what it looks like after its removed! there is much more sanding/grinding to be done for the fully polished look
Measuring a full 3/8 in thick! they would work for the real deal but mine are some what for bling factor. until i get rear LCA
I have 3 of them! 2 of them are for sale! PM me for details
Well thats all for tonight..i will have one test fitted tomorrow and im pretty confident they will fit like a glove but we'll see!!!
my plans are to polish mine or powder coat it depends what Rear LCA's i pick out!

No love like always lol but thats to be expected when im holding out til spring for big updates...
Brace is polished and clear coated! i love how it looks!! Will install next sunny day!!
Made a template of the sidemarkers so i know exactly how to cut my fenders! i hate doing this part!
I wont have much time over christmas break to go home to my dads garage so i will stay here and work...meanwhile i got another 4000 scholarship that i dont really need but its free money so why not apply..i will have another big refund from the school!!!
Coilovers have been chosen for over a year now...Fund has been started to purchase after first of the year
Wheels are picked out-will be purchased shortly after coilovers
Still very undecided about what lip i want if any at all..
I want new seats something that sits lower than these pieces of crap...possibly s2k seats...
