Hi all

Just a question on front guard strengthening, I have noticed on a few FC guards a extra piece of metal attached to the bottom of the front guards where they attach to the body (the two bottom back holes) and some do not.

I know their is a piece of metal spot welded where the stays attach, but is the one at the bottom of the guard original or not.

Cheers

Theres a support on both fe and fc,s that runs from the subframe to about a quarter of theway up the guard???

Thanks fchoon,

I should learn to post pics, where the stay you replied with comes from the subframe to the guard (all the guards has a support around the hole to stop it tearing), also some guards I have seen have another support at the bottom around the bolt holes. are these original

Sorry for the confusion
