A while back a thread was discerning the differences between E0's and E1's, 99's and 00's there was a mention of the decontenting of a brace for the front bumper on SVTs. My 99's bumper is super loose and I was wondering about adding this brace, should I not have it, or finding out what else to do. I assume some movement is good for the evil driveway and the like, but wanted to firm it up. Tried the search but came up with bupkis. Any insight would be appreciated, thanks.

Thanks for digging up the part#'s, Demon. I don't think I could find my receipts even if I tried.... BTW, here are the aforementioned pics:

I just ordered two of those braces (2 of the above part#, 1 for each side). I hope that's right!(?)
