Any point in me doing one of these or is the lower subframe brace a better option ?

whatever you do, DO NOT fully seam weld it, or it'll probably warp, just stitch weld it along the edges & it'll be solid. If you decide to fully seam weld it, you may have to restrain it in a jig to prevent warping, I recall Barbz never had his fully seam welded, but stich welded

I'm thinking of getting mine done too. My friends BF is a welder, so it'd be rude not too....
