Default impressed with STB

I bought a UMI STB, I am impressed in the results. I have been under the car and it is very clean. it has never been in salt and didn't think the STB would really help. The car feels alot tighter and different. I like it! nice results!

Are you sure you meant to say "STB"? A strut tower brace goes in the engine bay.
