I am going to wait on the Q2 and hope that my LHS gets them in sooner than later, lol. But thanks for all of the options for getting them from overseas.

As far as front end braces, the SM ones make the old style front end that much better. No breakage, tweak or anything.

If you do make a brace that spans the chassis make sure that it is exact since even a little bit can bow the chassis and tweak everything out.
