Ford Fiesta ST (2014-2019) I Brace
Jesse Hackman
Cheap construction and doesnt include hardware. Prie should be less then 100ì

Your gonna spend 180 for some steel and a sticker. I could of made a better one. Price is outrageous for quality. And then like I said no hardware so you'll have to order that too if your fiesra didn't come w it like mine.

Hello,

We're sorry you feel this way. We try to keep our prices reasonable and fair. The cost of manufacturing in the USA, and using USA made parts is considerably more than outsourcing but we feel it is worth it. This part specifically, while small, uses 4 billet CNC machined cups. We could make it cheaper by sacrificing quality here but choose not to.

As for the fasteners, they already exist on the vehicle in this location and are of high oem quality and specification.

Scion TC (2011-2016) C Pillar Brace
Knotz
Nice little upgrade!

I was a little skeptical about the C-pillar brace at first, but after a little trial and error installing it (about 20 min) in my 2014 tC, there was a noticeable difference immediately. The creaking and rattling from before has become almost non-existent, making the entire cabin way more silent. Not sure about performance in corners as I couldn't tell, but I'm sure the rear chassis stiffening is helping in the car's overall performance now!

Ford Focus ST (2013-2018) Brake Master Cylinder Brace
Kyle

Haven't installed it yet, but the quality and craftsmanship is superb. I can't wait to install it, except this particular upgrade is supposedly a PITA. Worth it, but still a pain. I've ordered from TB before, and everything they make is top tier quality. Good welds, thick steel, nice coatings... I totally recommend anything from them.

Ford Focus ST (2013-2018) Brake Master Cylinder Brace

Great item, was not aware of the weak support. This should help with hard braking on the track.

Toyota Corolla E210(2019-2022) Rear Strut Bar (Trunk Brace)

EXCELLENT PRODUCT

Well‑constructed rear strut bar made right here in the USA. Delivers a clear boost in chassis rigidity. Shipping was quick and customer service was top‑tier. A+++.
