Default I feel like buying SFCs today

The question is should I get the G2 SFCs or BMR's? The G2s are more expensive but you can add the V braces later, and I've heard the BMR ones are good and inexpensive but they don't have expanded bracing possibilities so to say. The other thing is I may be able to get a discount on the BMRs. I need help deciding.

SFC's are one of the first mods all f-body owners should do. I have the boxed set from Hotchkis and they tuck up really nice.

I know, my car has 13k on it now, there are a few rattles and squeeks. It pisses me off so much. But at the moment tires and wheels are first on the list.

My car has almost 50k miles on it and I lowered it recently, so I really need to something. Does anyone have an opinion on which ones I should get?

I have the BMRs and they barely visible. They work well, but I would consider braced SFCs also if I to buy them again.

What would you consider better, weld or bolt on?

Better meaning stronger and less maintenance? Then Welding is the way to go. I got bolts ons, but had them tack welded also.

DON'T GET JEGSTER BOLT ONS!

If you want bolt on, go with SLP for sure. If you're welding, then you have many options obviously.
