ok as far as how much i paid for and where i got i paid 229 shipped i found it for 189 + 12 shipping but it would have taken longer for it to get in so i decided to pay a bit for to get it in sooner as far as performance yeah i did feel a diff... at first i wasnt sure if it was real or not i thought it was all in my mind but i already did a few "test run" :P and i can more easly control the back end of my car and at lower speeds i find it easier to slide the *** around in a curve
i agree with u kmcconn9 unfortunatly i was guestimating on where it was and i was so sure of myself i didnt bother checking :/ stupid me and i ended up making it too wide and only after i had already cut the carpet i thought about making just slits :[ i should have thought it out a bit longer... fortunatly standing outside of the trunk the cut doesnt look as bad
looks good, I would have only cut a slot out for the opening but looks good. Notice any difference..

the v-brace is worth it. it may be less noticable on the evo, cause it seems stiffer from the get go and how low the rear strut tops are. but on the STi it was really noticable, and on the wagon night and day.
