At any price they are totally useless, some just look better than others.Nice innovation.
Yes, it actually feels a little stiffer and more responsive..the pieces vary depending on thickness but look to spend between 10 and 20..I've driven it hard for over a week now and it has not flexed or bent at all..I'm thinking about doing a motor strut next.
