Phil St John is an unknown quantity at this point
I went and looked at all the web sights and the CP braces look loke they have less mounting points and just plain look jinky. Somtimes you get what you pay for, sure metal may look loke any other metal but there is a huge difference between mild and UHSS(steel) and they look remarkably similar. It's like buying a Katanna for $200, sure it probably looks just like the $1200 one but cut somthing with it and the difference becomes apparent. Same can be said for things of this nature $100 is alot of money, did it really come out of the profit margin or was it build quality. I can make this argument wight almost anything you can buy. Sure there are companies that make quality stuff for less than the other guy but not that much less and not often. I suppose thats all my opinion anyway so instal and then post on how well they work out, I hope the cheaper CP brand works, cause I really want this part as well, Then again a fes minutes with a welder and a drill could give you much the same results; plus a trip to the hardware store.
