Give us a review of the URO Part...

I am very pleased with the fit and finish of everything I have received.
The bright work aluminum parts are indistinguishable from OEM.

I have one of their HD 914/6 engine mounts on my race car and it has held up perfectly for a season now.

Then we moved on to the longitudinal. Lots of obstacles on this side of the car
spray on the 3M 90

Matt used these sticks to keeps the carpet from sticking where it was not massaged into place. This was a learning experience for me

Fantastic! looks beautiful Glenn.
Isn't this perfect ?
We finally can park next to each other with our Light Ivory cars and for the first time ever our target event is cancelled.
What a bummer.
Wash your hands.
