That looks like a very elegant solution. It is a another example of Velox form and function.

Sunday's design became Monday's prototypes

. I sent these out to the customer who sent in his OEM bracket/tie rod to help me design this. Even though they are plastic and we would not release a 3D printed production piece, they should withstand use for a few weeks/months and ensure fitment is proper at a minimum.

Pretty happy with how it came out.

Thanks,
Eric

Test fit with customer went great!

Thanks,
Eric

We're cruising right along with this next production run with a few small changes. Below is one of them to help set us apart from the direct copied units

.

Thanks,
Eric

Below are pictures of the units post anodizing with another change to the design. These are changes we hope will set us far apart from the copied units. This ensures you are getting a genuine Velox Motorsports product that uses the correct materials and tolerances to last a long life.

Most of these are headed to distributors for order fulfillment, we have a few on the shelf. FT-86 SpeedFactory ordered a special color which will be available through them.

Thanks,
Eric

Production pieces of the auto-level headlight brackets are below.

Thanks,

These look great!
Do you know of anyone that had confirmed fitment on 11-14 WRX/STI?

Other LCA's use same part number for BRZ/FRS and WRX/STI.

Just wondering before I pull the trigger.

Yes, they do. We've had a local company confirm fitment on a 11-14 WRX/STI.

Thanks,

@VeloxEric

Are the auto-level brackets included with the arms now, or available separately? I didn't see a link for them on the LCA page of your website. Perhaps I overlooked them elsewhere?

Thanks!

Have not had a chance to get them on our website yet. I'll work on that later today.

Thanks,

It is now uploaded. As a heads up, we are moving, across the country at that, and Tuesday is the last day I can ship out till at the earliest next Tuesday, the 2nd of May. Alternatively, FT86SpeedFactory has a stocking order headed their way.

Thanks,
Eric

Our LCAs are being used and abused by Element Tuning this year on his Global Time Attack FRS. Had to share this image after the past weekend.

The LCAs are back in stock as well

.

Thanks,
