Hotchkis strut brace... I cleaned the engine bay some, but it's in dire need of a good cleaning. I'll try and get better pics of the engine bay today or tomorrow.

I don't push my car really hard like SCCA/Auto-X stuff, but there was a bit of a difference. The change from 15x7 with 215/65-15 to 16x8 with 245/50-16 tires was a bigger difference to me. When I went from 16x8 with 245/50-16 tires to 17x9.5 with 275/40-17 there wasn't as big of a difference. It sticks better when pushed, you can feel more ruts in the road, and the steering will wander/track more because of it also.

Would look even better if your headlight pockets were semi-gloss black instead of satin IMO.
