[QUOTE="mADmAN, post: 1064602167, member: 4286"] the Beaks bar on its own acts as a lower tie bar... to help strengthen the chassis... it doesnt replace anything...but the design is pretty weak... so ppl install it more for bling... but the bar + a subframe brace (eg ASR) becomes absolutely useless and just for adding weight as well as bling.. bcoz the subframe brace does a better job at strengthening the subframe than any other lower tie bar. and when it comes to ASR+beaks... u actually mount the beaks ON the ASR... rendering it useless other than bling. and just as an FYI... the subframe braces and beaks (as well as those bling lower control arms)... are made for hondas.. non honda=fake....actually most in the country is fake..very minimal original ones here coz the fakes are so cheap and works pretty decently for its true intended purpose. correct about the honda and the distributor although ppl can just order the thing online lighten? lower arm? with the beaks and subframe brace like ASR... lower arm is not involved...no lightening.. the thing is an add on.. not a replacement...unless ur talking about them Lower Control Arms.. yes, those are replacement and meant to lighten (beaks no LCA though)... although the weight difference is actually negligible.. another possible reason to install is the bushings on aftermarket arms may improve handling... BUT... ALOT of aftermarket brands of LCA have sucky bushings... even ori brand use shitty bushings... like my ori Blox... 6 months koyak... and this is generally happening with other users as well...so far the only recommended brand to get is Function7... and im talking ori...costing 1k+... and hardrace for bang for buck (both brands only have for honda) if improving handling is the concern, then replacing the stock bushings on stock LCAs would be more beneficial cost wise..
