    if they're as weak as they look, i'd say they're next to useless.

    Someone from the forum had one of those ebay braces, and i remember reading that they could literally bend them with their hands!

    I know you can get a decent front strut brace from justjap for the zed, about $250 from memory. Not sure about the rear though, anyone else know?

    I bought one 2 years ago for my last zed and snapped the weld on the strut bracket mid-corner. F**ked the bonnet and guard. Spent 4 months arguing with the seller (not this one, another one) and in the mean time I had removed it and repaired the damage. And in the end gave up.

    Different seller, same POS brace.

    Spend another 150 odd and get a good solid one.

    take them out, try bending them.

    if they bend or break then they phail and you should bin them.
