DIY Ultra racing lower arm brace

[seechoong]

I just bought a used unit of Ultra racing lower arm brace. The bar has some scratches but it working very well. I have repainted it with matt black and turn it into "Black" racing instead.


THIS IS HOW THE BAR LOOKS LIKE.

I sanded the scratches parts and dents with metal grinder to keep it looks better.

Alright, time to repaint it.

I retained the serial no. of the bar so i didn't paint the sticker. I know it looks ugly otherwise paint the entire bar in black.

NEXT STEP:-

Jack up the car.

Remove the bolt of lower arm bush and tigthen the bolts. Do the same to the other side.

Wow, how did your brace get that nasty dent? Looks good after you fix/paint it though. :thumbsup:

But really, did you hit a large speed bump or scrape over a rock to cause that damage?

Unfortunately, i hit a small tiny speed bump and cause a damage to a lower arm. Sadly it was unavoidable as the road was cover in a darkness.
