The 'WHY YOU NEED FENDER BRACES' post
Not really an article but thought I should put this here as an FYI for anyone that has wondered what's the point to fender braces and do I really need bracing...
yes, yes you do.
My car was perfectly straight, then I went and got silvia coil-overs, running 8.7kg/mm on the front with the shox set to max... just some daily driving, a few potholes and I could swear I could see the nose of the car tipping up for a split second on rough bits of road.
So, I took the fender off to contemplate how I should make a fender brace and discovered a nice crease where the lateral frame meets the longitudinal.
Hope this helps
Any other damage?
jesus, thats rough.
it should just buff out
They see me rolling..... They hatin
and that's why 8kg springs are a little pointless on a car without a cage/strut tower triangulating... just bends everything else instead of moving the suspension
