Hmmm so the AKG FCABs are expected to arrive today or tomorrow so potential installation pending this weekend. Pretty exited to see the difference.

Here's a pic of the rear net installed along with the all-weather trunk mat.

Finally found some spare time to install the AKG street performance poly FCABs. The install was a breeze and only took about 1.5 hours. Big thanks to kayger12 for his DYI. The old OEM bushings were shot after only 35k miles, which is on the low side. Went for a quick test drive and steering response now is sharper and there's no more steering wheel jolt when hitting the bakes. Feels very solid and I'm pretty happy that these things have long life expectancy.

Good deal. It's so tempting to go this route instead of replacing oem FCABS every 35k.

Sweet. I'm kicking around the idea of going poly cabs too. I already have my poly rtabs sitting here waiting to be installed some time this weekend.
You had some typos in your post. You are getting no more what in your steering when hitting the brakes? Are you seeing any increase in harshness or road noise?
