yea true jack didnt even think about that, still looks nasty,
personally for me, because i use my car on dark twistys, generally the roads throw up potholes, rutts, horse fats, etc so i think i'd prefer to notice my car crabbing from a bent oem one, rather than throwing me off a hill at the jolt of pot hole, lol
thanks clone, saved me some coin, at this point i think im just gunna use re-pressed oem's, shouldnt have to re-enforce the things when theyre new, besides i dont really need to save 2-3 kgs when im lugging a full system around...
