We do have a limited amount in stock at present though.



You can see below that it is also a sturdier brace than some of the traditional types.
The brace shown below is AusS2000's old Spoon brace.

IMO..........That Cusco Type2 looks pretty tempting. Similar design to the Whiteline, $50 less.....and shipping will be alot less coming from Northern CA.

Give it a try and tell us what you think.

I personally have the Neuspeed and like it. Great value and as others have said, they are all about the same.

How's about some shops that sell these braces for a good price? I'm looking to buy a Muz one, but shipping, dam, kills the want. Must look up Cusco type 2 and Neuspeed now. Off I go!

Wow, Cusco is cheaper at 150. Neuspeed is like 180. But can someone recommend some shops? Shopping on the internet with unknown stores is so risky nowadays. Cusco type 2, hook me up!

I had the MUZ Whiteline X-Brace. I loved it and had great service. I received it within two weeks. I highly recommend it, it saved my motor one time when I did a rail slide on a curb. Personally I recommend any type of X-Brace for that reason, to protect the underbelly of your motor.
I have the Cusco U-shape now, I guess it works. The only reason why I went Cusco is because MUZ was sold out of the Whiteline X-Brace. But if I had the option again I would choose MUZ.

Also, becareful about which Cusco brace you buy. It's really confusing. I wanted the type 2 brace, and in the pictures it looked perty much the same as the Whiteline brace. But when I received it, I got stuck with the U-shaped brace. I guess I could have returned it, but then again it was cheaper.


If I were you, I would just get the MUZ whiteline brace. . . What you see is what you get!!
