Who makes a front lower strut brace for a corsa/tigra 1.4 or 1.6 XE 16v?
FK?
Other companies?
I've already have a upper lower and a rear strut braces, but Sparco and OMP don't make the front lower brace

cheers

no, that joins the tie bars. the lower strut brace bolts onto the chassis.

Wiechers Sport make them, PVD stock them and I've got one fitted

It's an "S" shaped bar so doesn't sit any lower than the rest of the car.

there ok get bolted from bottom arm bolt to bottom arm bolt, there curved to stop it hitting the exhaust etc but if you lower the car in most cases you will just hit ever little bump on the road and end up removing it
