If anyone has dropped they're subframe off their car, could you take a few photos of it?

The S15 rear subframe has more bracing than the S14s, so I want to weld some extra bits onto my S14.

Photos will be much appreciated!

It's plated - the same as the heat shields but with a different final process for the colour and extra protection. That's what they came like from the factory and is good because it's really thin so the bushes fit perfectly :)

I'm not trying to be a smartass, but why waste your time painting, polishing, plating the underneath braces of the car?

because we have **** weather in this country - this ain't the gold coast - so if you're going to protect your stuff and stop it rotting, might as well do it with a nice finish :)

lol no, just a zinc plating with an extra process at the end for the colour/protecton. It's what they were finished like from the factory.
