Can i see your SFC's?
Next upgrade on my list probably. if anyone has pictures handy of their sfc install i'd appreciate it.
Also any perks to getting weld in over bolt on? They'd be going on a DD, 2002 T/a.

weld in are firmer. bolt holes naturally have to be slightly larger than the bolt that's meant to go into them, which means there is room for a very slight amount of movement. you'd probably never notice a difference, but if i'm going to add weight to my car, i want to get everything i can out of it.

Me personally (to each his own) I would get the bolt ins. No welding or painting the welds afterwards. Strictly bolt on's and if the car's not an all out race car, I think that they are perfect!

been thinking about the UMI 3point bolt in myself. I just like the idea that if i want to trade or sell the car i can pull the SFC back off. I like the extra connection point on the 3point also.

Hello
As long as you install the SFC's properly with the suspension loaded. And torque the hardware to specs you shouldn't have any issues. And like you mentioned if you ever decide you want to sale the vehicle you can remove them. Either way you can't go wrong !
Thanks

i like the weld in ones....only because you never have to worry about them loosening and elongating the holes. welding is stronger.
i'm willing to part with the $200 if i ever end up selling the car...if nothing else its incentive to the buyer

Hello
The reason why we offer both bolt in version and weld on is not everyone has the access to a welder. And in that case we suggest going with the bolt on SFC;s and later down the road when they can get them welded then. But there are some people that don't want to weld on there vehicle (which that is understandable as well) Either way you decide to go is a plus. If you have any other questions feel free to ask.
