Who has the best price on Hotchkis Max brace?

I've been reading up on the Hotchkis chasis brace for under the car. This might be one I want to do as well. I've seen prices ranging a good $100 - $150 difference between vendors. I could've sworn I saw the brace for $450 at one time but can't find that now. This might have been a promotional thing...

Anyone know where the best price is on this?

Phastek has them for $488.75

But the consesus two years ago was to stiffen the subframe bushings first if that hasn't already been done. Not sure if this theory has changed since.

We designed our Chassis Max Brace to be an easy installation without going through the trouble of installing subframe bushings. Since it is such an easy install we suggest installing the brace before installing bushings to see if you feel additional control is necessary.

Looks like I've found the best price at Jegs. Luckily my dad buys enough through them that he has a racers account which gets me about a 10% discount. $454 shipped.

I'll probably be ordering it up at the begining of next month.
