    I made my own, I didn't want a set that hung too low. I ran them through the floor from the rear torque box to the sub frame. My car will be low when it's done so I want to minimize ground strikes! 20160529_173619.jpg

    That is not a subframe connector, I believe that's called a Monte Carlo bar.

    No pics but the Chassis Engineering subframe connectors are a good fit with just needing a little grinding to make the angle fit the frame exactly and may not need to do it on your car , They are what I have also
