Great color, fit ok, feels cheap. I wish it had more weight to it and be an actual radiator brace

Looks more aggressive!

Perfect fitting but a little tricky install. I highly recommend because it gives a nice and aggressive mean looking touch.

Great addition to the front end!

This Front Brace bar worked out great!, as I was adding a horn kit behind it. The versatility to shim out the bar for clearance of the horns and still fit, was what I expected. I am a stickler for details, and with a bit of time and mock-up, swapping out the hardware for the perfect fit was my goal! Good deal AFD!

Really makes your VB stand out from the rest

One of the easiest installs for a subtle but distinctive mod. Most annoying part is putting the front bumper back on. The car looks even better than before. Really happy with it.

Brace yourself

Great view from behind a recently added sport grill. Transforms the car. Easy install. Getting bumper back on is the worst part.

Just what the front end needed.

Color match is great, makes the front end look much better. The grille needed something behind it for sure. 10/10 quality.

Looks great

Looks great and install was fairly easy. The bottom screws suck to put in but what are you going to do that’s just how it is because of the car.

Good product with one bad weld

One bad weld prevented me from putting all the screws on. Still mounted fine with 3 screws and looks great but slightly disappointed with that welding issue.

Subtle aggression

This doesn’t stand out in all lighting and all angles, but it does give a bit of a sportier look when you can see it. I hadn’t seen a red brace bar on a red car, but I think it looks good. With the AFD sport grille and no emblem, it fills in that empty space. So I’m happy with it. It was really easy to install.

Looks absolutely amazing

Easy install, just gotta take off the bumper and it’s just removing a little thing then 4 bolts, easy as pie and worth every cent, accents are perfect for me and looks so amazing with the carbon grille

Front brace bar

I have installed the brace bar and the front sport grill and the installation was so smooth. It looks really good on the VB😍

Brace Bar

Brace Bar is an amazing piece to add with my sports grill . Only thing that was frustrating was the OEM bolts didn’t work as stated because the welding on the bar and the washer on the bolt didn’t fit. So I had to buy bolts but overall makes the car look much cleaner!

Front brace

Got it in good timing, ordered red but received a white one and AFD kindly sent me a return stamp so I could return it for the color I ordered but instead I decided to keep the white. Good quality fits right in.
