I have the full lenght MM and am very happy with them. Actually, I am very pleased with all the MM products I have. Top Quality!

Btw, I got mine from arts performance parts for $160.00 Shipped http://www.artsperformanceparts.com/...sproducts.html

I found him through an other mustang forum.

It doesnt matter if you get them powder coated. If you do, when you go to weld, the coat on the ends is gonna be gone anyways. I used just some red spray can paint that i had lying around...while i was at it, i grinded all of the rust off of the bottom of my car and painted the bottom black with a few coats...

They do many things.
-improve handling
-less chassis flex = better launches
-help the suspension do its job instead of the chassis taking the bumps.
I noticed a slightly stiffer ride, more stable through corners, and alot of the squeaks and rattles that would happen inside the car were eliminated.
