do fender braces work?

i have an 88 crx si
when i bring her home from the bodyshop i'm more than likely going to start with my suspension

do fender braces work?
do they actively stiffen the frame and allow for less flex when cornering?http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/88-91...ayphotohosting
there's a link to what i'm talking about
anyone in the gta have these installed on their car?
do they work well?
would i be able to take a look at them?
i was hoping to maybe fabricate them if you have a set and dont mind helping me out by just taking a look at them..
anyway..

my main reason for this thread is to find out whether or not they are something worth my time or just well.. a shiny waste of money
lemme know
thanks
later

lol.. yeah i know they'll be under the fenders.. but my main thing was to figure out whether or not they were something i should spend money on... i realize that there needs to be a certain amount of chassis flex when you're cornering.. just wondering whether or not these solve the problem of excessive flex
i'm hoping to turn like a champ..
anyway.. keep the replies coming
looking to hear from people who have these on their car.. not even to moch up and make my own.. but just for their assesment even!?
gta people would be awesome to get replies from.. but a reply is a reply
