Yes they are nice looking, and they go in pretty easily, and tighten up the car considerably

UMI is the bomb. They have great prices too.

That setup with the tq arm that mounts to it is one of the slickest setups I have seen.

I am talking about this picture UMI

They probably don't. I didn't lose any ground clearance with UMI's boxed SFCs.

The don't affect ground clearance at all, they tuck up really nice, you can't even see them from the side of the car

Great to see everyone is pleased

We have done our best to keep ground clearance issues at the minimum. If anyone has any questions please ask and I am glad to help.

Thanks once again!

Those look nice. I wonder how they stack up against the SLP's in terms of strength.

Two major question:


How much is shipping? The site doesnt say. Im in 29649.

How much on average is the charge to weld them in? Can a muffler or general welding shop do the work or is it performance shop only?

Thanks for any help.

Also another question...if an SS came with all SLP options would that include their subframe connectors?

Hello,

The only way to get a shipping price through the site is go through the check out and act as if you are going to buy them. But the price would be $30.50 to your zip code.

An average cost for welding would be $80-$120 depending on the shop.

Your SS package did not include the SLP subframe connectors.

If I can help anymore please ask, thank you!

Ryan
