SFC's are used to stiffen the frame of the car and prevent it from flexing/twisting. I have Kenny Brown SFC's welded to my frame, and they're awesome!

Actually one of my part timers has a set of NEVER used BMR SFC laying around his house, they are the weld on's painted red. I'll ask him tomorrow at work if he wants to sell them. He doesn't know where to get them installed at, that's the only reason he hasn't gotten them installed. NLP said $150.00 and he didn't want to pay that.

I'll post up tomorrow and let you know.

Sorry, but he is now wanting a v8 car and wants to keep the sub-frames for that car. If the car that he buys already has them on the car, I'll let you know and make sure that you get the SFC. Sorry that I couldn't help.
