Do they still cost more than my car is worth? They are probably fantastic but for me the price is unjustifiable.

I love my SPL rears and have seen the SPC (front or rear) not fair too well. I'll look into the fronts in the spring. Thanks for your post.

What do you mean by you have seen them not fare too well?

I bought my SPLs from a former coupe owner. He originally had a rear SPC arm that had snapped after some spirited driving. Hasn't SPC redesigned their front arms due to them failing? I haven't seen the front SPL products yet but the rear SPL arms are much heftier than their SPC counterparts.

Random picture but a size comparison:
