Are those the old style lowers?

Also, by the looks of the brake ducting, and all the dirt, I'm going to guess those have seen a bit more abuse than your average driver puts on a car. Track your modified car long enough, and eventually you get to experience a failure like that.





In my case, I had the actual factory control arm fail. I'm not surprised there are pictures of track cars w/ exploded Teins floating about. But without knowing the story behind the picture, I wouldn't consider it a reason not to buy Tein.
