i noticed that the acceleration didnt have as much trouble responding going around a corner at 30mph and the steering response is better with less body roll.

Looks great.
I love mine.
It stiffened up my car and took some rattles out that I had.

Question though, did you take the UMI logo off yours?

Looks good, red was the right color in my opinon.

I honestly really didn't notice a difference when I put mine on. I just put it on for looks mostly.

I agree, I didnt notice anything either. It make the engine bay look a lot better though.

well they do look good but i figured they would help the handling at least on the hard corners does it not?

I think it helped out a lot, but you guys already had a lot of suspension upgrades and ect so you might not notice it, my friend was like wow your car didnt roll as much in the corner and ect...I think its working good. And mine didnt come with the UMI performance sticker attached to it...him maybe they dont do it anymore. did some highway testing on the sharp turns on the off ramps and noticed it was staying with the turn a lot better and not slipping one way or the other and felt real solid taking the off ramp at high speeds.
