They have

Front strut brace, Rear strut brace, rear trunk cage, v brace, lateral reinforcement brace, 4 point ladder brace and front 2 point tie brace already.. not expecting to make any more brace...

Gtspec is in around the sulfolk area on Long Island. If I had a mazda 5I would help.

oh on long island.. that's MUCH closer to me in CT (yay ferry) than it is to me here in the ROC.

For someone in CT it is nice and close... but I don't honestly think there's a member in NEPOC with a 5 yet.

Someone with a 5 should jump on this. The Ravspec/gtspec sales/Cs are great to work with.

Any idea of the pricing for this stuff when it comes out?

I guess if you guys get real desperate and can't find anyone local, I would be willing to help out long distance if that's possible. I have access to a lift and most any tools except welding equipment.

Pricing will be approximately the same with Mazda 3 braces. We want it local becasue if it doesn't fit, we can see it first hand what needed to be change ..

thankx for you offer though !

Mark.
