ARC Aluminum Underbody Tray & ARC Strut Bar Installed

well more parts to test fit.

-
perfect fitment to replace the plastic underbody covering. includes vents and a space to take out your oil filter.













ARC Strut Bar
My opinion..... great looking strut bar but not as stiff as the GT-Spec prototype. if you want a nice clean piece and don't want that stiff "for off road use only" type of ride - this would be sufficient if money was of no issue for you

I like the underbody tray, very nice! How does the weight compare to the stock plastic piece?

Awesome stuff.

I want one of those under trays but I'm not willing to spend $500 on one.


PS - Should I assume by your lack of replies you are ignoring both of my PM's regarding GT-Spec?

that tray is nice, but there's no way i'll ever justify spending $500 for a sheet of metal.

By the way, how did you get set-up with the ARC stuff? Is that via GT-Spec too? ARC makes some sweet stuff! Big $$$ but very nice.

+1....that price is going to be hard to swallow for anyone. Do these manufacturers even consider cost before they prototype these things? If you make a great part that most people can't buy (or can't justify spending that much) the product isn't going to move. I was 90% considering buying that when I saw the picture...then I scrolled down and saw the price

Everything from ARC is like that. If I remember right that strut bar is $600.

GT Spec is a distributor of ARC products and other JDM hi-line pieces.

and the market is out there for hi end expensive quality pieces. almost like rims -- you have lower price 20"s and the 20" maya's, asanti's, volks, etc

Ah gotcha. You sure hit the jackpot with that place!!!

I love all the ARC stuff and would have it all if I had the cash. Their Z oil cooler is so pimp but $2k is a bit rich for me.
