Am I right in thinking there is only Barbarian that do a full set currently?

@Carolyn does possibly the best front strut brace you can buy. Possibly only bettered by TRD.

@Snelbaard is doing some bracing too based on corkys and TRD if I remember correctly.

What year is your car?
If it's early late model OEM bracing can be an improvement.
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

54 plate, ideally want all braces from the same supplier.

Not going to happen, I'm afraid. At least, not without much hunting and many many pennies.

What do you consider to be a 'full set'?

We might add a mid brace to our front brace if there is demand.

I have a TRD rear strut brace on my car.  It's very well made.  However, I can't discern a difference in the car's behaviour with it on or off.  Not so for the mid brace and front strut brace.

By full I mean front lower and upper, rear and mid brace.

Anyone on here have the Barbarian stuff.

Don't spending the money they look well made and if they perform....

I'd be interested in a front upper and rear if you were to make some up.

Just prefer not to mix and match, bit of an ocd thing.... 😂

Dibs my mat brace has seen better days.
Previous owner had it way too low and walloped a speed bump.

An 04 car will have an adequate (if ugly) OEM lower front brace.

Try ultra racing if not barbarian... They do quite a comprehensive set.
