Title: Chassis stiffening
Post by: Gregmorse on August 4, 2020, 01:00
Hi guys, new to the club, have owned my roadster since August last year, having owned a 92 turbo mk2 for 5 years prior(until selling it last month).
Have looked around at chassis stiffening(strut braces, under car braces etc), does anyone know where to look for second hand ones?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Greg

Here is as good as anywhere. One came up at the weekend.

You will need to get your post count up to 30+ to see the sales section though.

Welcome Greg. 
30 posts does indeed unleash you to the commercial and private sales are. There are no braces there for sale at the minute but they do come up.

oh dam thanks guys - had a wheel alignment done at the weekend in hopes it'll stay a bit more planted, may be placebo affect but I think it helped a little.

You can keep an eye the Facebook group as well for second stuff..

Otherwise brand new will be Snelbaard, ultra racing, beat rush and Cusco.

I'd heard of the others but have tried googling "Snelbaard" but with no luck, would you have a link? If that's allowed..

@Snelbaard contacts you.. you don't contact him.

Kidding! You should have access to the commercial sales section.

Have a search for Dev“s door braces too. Cheap, simple, effective.
