I have got a estimate of about 4 grand, And that shop is a good shop, I wish i had it cause my car is just sitting waiting for it!
I should have left the cans on until I had the money!

I ran a cros brace in the shape of an X in my accord wagon in the back when I cut the rear, no buckle at all. the front I used a piece of 90 degree bent DOM where the windsheild washer bottle was and on the opposite side as well.

I dont have any pics of the rear but basically it went from the bridge to where the top of the seat belts attached, in that area

Here you can see the passenger side front support

the mount on the fire wall started to pull off we had run a piece of 3/16" behind the fire wall to strengthen the mount but it wasnt enough. we got it fixed now and every thing works great

RE 6'S YOU WONT'T LIKE THE RE5'S, I HAD RE 5'S DIDN'T GET ENOUGH LIFT AND THEY RODE VERY STIFF BECAUSE OF THE AMOUNT OF PRESSURE TO LIFT THE CAR.
