The Brace arrived monday, and after painting the end plates black, I have installed it.



The troublesome active piping in the way of the allen bolt....(not really that troublesome after all.... PHEW!)



Closer shot, showing the clearance...



Thanks go to Jeff, for going to the trouble of making these bars for us NICO folk.

I haven't yet driven it, so I will wait till tomorrow....Give the car a push to see if the tension is ok on the brace lock nuts.

PS. Thanks for including straight forward installation guide, with clear pics!!!Very easy to understand. I wish chinese toys came with assembly instructions like this!Unlike....Put bar to bolt on the car side. insert with fun! LOL

I need to use this in my next set of instructions!

I am glad you FINALLY got it. The USPS should advertise "We ship to Australia, in less than 3 months!"

It seems to get to the US from here much quicker....

Oh well.

I noticed you found a way around wrapping the FED-EX box with brown paper....

Good idea, turning it inside out!!

It was delivered just as i was putting the PS hose back on.... not good timing by Australia post delivery van...
