Overview
Unibody vehicles like the Honda Civic excel in comfort, reliability, and lightweight construction. However, due to the inherent flex in their chassis design, performance limits can often be felt during spirited driving or high-speed cornering. PRL Motorsports has developed a robust solution to maximize your Civic’s potential and increase structural rigidity. The 2016-2021 Honda Civic Front Chassis Brace Upgrade perfectly complements our existing mid-rear and rear chassis braces to complete the full chassis reinforcement set.
This precision-engineered brace bolts onto three existing holes on each side of the subframe, effectively triangulating the load and significantly improving lateral rigidity. Designed to mount outside of the plastic under-shield, it does not interfere with the factory brace, ensuring simple installation. TIG-welded from 304 stainless steel, this brace offers exceptional durability and high corrosion resistance. You will feel a noticeable improvement in performance, especially during hard cornering, while adding a sophisticated, stylish accent to the undercarriage of your vehicle.

Before You Order
〇 About Import Consumption Tax
At Shafto-ya Shopping Site, we cover any import consumption tax incurred at the time of import on your behalf, so you will not be charged any additional fees beyond the total amount paid at checkout.
〇 Compatibility Check
Our entire product database is based on North American vehicles (USDM). Please confirm compatibility with your Japanese vehicle (JDM) before placing an order. (If you are unsure whether the listed product is compatible with your vehicle, please feel free to contact us. Our support team will be happy to look into it for you.)
If an order is placed without verifying compatibility, we cannot accept returns due to incompatibility.
Please note that even if items are sorted by year, make, and model using the tabs on our homepage, it does not guarantee that they will fit a Japanese model vehicle without modification.
All products have been translated into Japanese using translation software. As there may be confusing expressions, please contact us before ordering if you have any questions.
○ Regarding Shipping
Shipping costs are paid at the time of checkout. Shipping estimates are calculated automatically when you enter your shipping address on the checkout page. For large items such as body parts, the actual shipping cost may occasionally differ significantly from the automated calculation. In such cases, we will contact you individually by email.
All products are generally shipped internationally from our US warehouse. Unlike domestic Japanese shipping, international delivery takes approximately 7 to 14 days, so please allow sufficient time when placing your order. If you are in a hurry, please contact us in advance to confirm delivery times. Note that all items are shipped via air freight; they are not shipped by sea.
○ Regarding Japanese Vehicle Inspection (Shaken) Compatibility
Essentially all products we handle are designed and manufactured outside of Japan. Please note that they are not compliant with the "Japanese Vehicle Inspection System," and we cannot provide strength calculation documents for Japanese inspection purposes. Therefore, all parts are sold for "circuit, private property, or off-road use only," and their installation and use are at your own risk.
○ Regarding Warranty
Please check the contents of your order immediately upon arrival. Since all products are shipped internationally from outside Japan, packaging boxes and items may occasionally sustain damage during transit. We will provide returns, refunds, or replacements for items that arrive damaged, are defective, or are incorrect only if you contact us within 7 days of receipt. Please understand that for products sold through us, warranty support will be handled "exclusively through us." We do not provide support through other companies or distributors located within Japan.
