| "In less
than a mile of street driving, I could tell what a huge difference the FRAME
LOCKS make. Minor road imperfections previously felt through the steering
system were greatly reduced. The whole front suspension felt much tighter,
more connected. My satisfaction grew even more when I was able to take
onramps and corners up to 15mph faster. Understeer has been reduced, giving
a more neutral feel. A welcome change to any Honda corner-carver, street or
track." |

| Driving to work this
morning without the brackets really reminded me of what a difference the
parts make in the ride of the car.…The front of the car feels more solid and
planted on the road." |

| “After
having FRAME LOCKS installed on my car, I took it out on a familiar,
mountainous road. I know all the twists, bumps, and potholes by heart. I
couldn't believe the improvement. It was like a different car! Every turn
was smooth and solid. The bumpy roads definitely felt softer too. I took a
high-speed turn and felt no twisting whatsoever. I was having a total blast
driving my car! Some of the dips in the road used to be bad, but with the
FRAME LOCKS installed, they felt great! I honestly believe Honda made a
mistake by not designing this into their cars.” |

| "To be
honest, I was skeptical. But I personally installed the right Frame Lock and
found the process to be quite easy. Afterwards, we took a test drive and I
immediately noticed an improvement in ride quality—within 100 feet after we
left the garage. Cruising down the street, my car felt more solid, grounded
and smoother. I couldn’t believe how comfortable my car felt driving over
bumpy roads and changing lanes on the freeway. A few days later, I started
to test the handling. Another bonus! Freeway on ramp cornering with the
FRAME LOCKS was 5-10 mph faster than without them. Truly fantastic. The
FRAME LOCKS seemed like the missing link in my other suspension upgrades. I
would highly recommend them to anyone." |

| "(FRAME
LOCKS) right the wrongs you did to your ride quality when you upgraded your
suspension. They really dampen down the front end, and make it feel like a
solid unit. They’re not really an aftermarket upgrade. They're what
was missing from your car before you put them on." |

| "After the
brackets were installed, both my passengers and I immediately noticed a
change in the car's handling and ride quality. One of my passengers noticed
the improvement and I didn’t even tell him I installed the FRAME LOCKS
before hand. I am truly amazed at the difference these brackets have made.
During my mountain driving, the car felt rigid and solid. A great amount of
flex was reduced in bank turns and there seemed to be less recovery time
between turns from side to side. I even found myself going faster in my
every-day driving." |

| "I used to
go over nasty bumps and such with fear. Now, when I go over these same
roads, I feel more at ease about the car. It seems to take the asphalt like
a man now. The car does not flex left or right as much anymore. It just
takes it all as one." |

| "I was
impressed with how much more responsive the car was. It would pretty much do
whatever I wanted it to do, at the speed I wanted. I’ve had the most fun
I’ve ever had in my car the last few days since the install…especially on
the twisties of the mountain roads and on the back breaking 880 between 92
and Oakland. That stretch usually makes for a jarring ride, but the FRAME
LOCKS made it 100% more comfortable. It’s unbelievable. Much of the "shock"
was taken from the bumps. My rides home from San Francisco on the 101 have
gone from being a chore to a pleasure." |

| "The ride felt
tighter and more together on the neighborhood streets. But the biggest
improvement was on the freeway. Before, the car would feel like it bottomed
out on bumps, dips and overpasses, and the overall ride felt harsh too. Now
the car seems to have a more dampened feel. |

| "There is a
definite improvement in the car's handling. The product eliminates the bumpy
effects of the road. If your car is lowered and you want your ride to feel
the same as stock, or even better, the FRAME LOCKS will help. You know those
railroad tracks you’re afraid to drive over? Well, with the FRAME LOCKS on,
you can drive over railroad bumps with a lot more confidence. The FRAME
LOCKS improved the structural rigidity of the front of the car even more
than the upper and lower bars I’d already installed—in my opinion, they’re
the single best thing you can do for your car’s front end." |
