If you're going to be welding it yourself, don't worry about the crappy attach to the rear shock types, weld a bar directly between the turrets, it's a much better brace.

cheers mate that will be sound

Ok, as promised:-

Heres one on my car:-

Its a Steel OMP brace (was in red). Fits well but had to turn my air intake pipe around so it would clear

Heres one on my brothers car:-

This is a E-tech brace (the strut hats are made of steel and the bar is ali)

This is made of ali and it adjusts with the center to add tension. This fits well to a single point injection like my old 1.6 8v and 1.4 8v but would squash the air intake directly above the throttle body on my Ecotec so went for an OMP

heres my OMP brace again. This is the best i've come across

and lastly, my rear brace:-

excuse the crap spray job on this!
