Being cheap provides opportunities to make things for your toys. Seeing what Arrma was selling as a shock tower brace got my mind saying "Really???? A crappy little curved bar with two mount holes? I can make one." I said that I would do a step by step for it when I did it too. Full disclosure: I am a aircraft sheet metal mechanic by trade so this type of work is easy for me.
