Probably in the mind that your car is handling better[]
It was for me - when I fitted the front brace on my newage it made virtually no difference. I removed it and sold it. Extreme Motorsport told me the newage is so stiff as a shell that it barely would benefit unless Carbon Fibre - they said all I was doing was plcing extra stress on my components by stiffening them up and removing sometimes necessary flex for normal road driving. However, for a classic they recommended lots of upgrade as the shell is nowhere near as stiff.
