Default RMM Polished Strut Tower Brace GS400





This is being worked on by Eric at RMM, you can get this through them and also CL vendors carry RMM stuff sometimes cheaper than getting it direct.

and believe me Carson is the guys to go to for this stuff

when i needed a RMM rear bumper ..he gave me the best price he could with quick shipping

you almost never want to deal with RMM direct ...always get a better price from one of the CL vendors

The RMM is a lot beefier looking and there is no DIY involved.

Woe ! Blast from the past!

Haven't seen that old pic of my engine compartment. Hasn't looked like that in a looooong time.

I went out this evening to try and shoot a similar angle. Even with the limited view, you can see some of the changes: EDFC, braided line, battery jumper posts.

A nice mod for the STB is to fill in the engraved logo with black paint or the body color of your choice.

Beefier or not it still works the same. As long as the bar doesnt bend or the joins brake the outcome is the same isent it? Whats the price on that bar?

Mike,
dunno if anyone else has tried it, but come on by and we'll measure it out. Might make it with some spacers.

Do they make any othe STB that will clear the Gs 400 engine cover? I thought i saw a DSR that may clear clear it. I'm not sure... I was also thinking of the RMM STB also... I think you responded to my thread about installing it... So it should be pretty easy.... I 've heard that RMM STB take awhile to get after you order it....DO you recommend a website to order from that they'll ship it out quickly? Thanks tmf
