Error on my part.
As you stated the RB is only for the MK6.
The MK7 does not have a RB part.
Sorry for error.
So MK7 only has XBQ and UBQ.
Please note!
Also changed earlier price post.

It appears that you can still order a UBQ in either color directly from the unibrace website (it lets you add it to the cart and proceed to check out) unlike other items which display as unavailable. Do you need to be on the group buy if that's the only piece we're after?
Edit: spoke to Bruce, they are not accepting orders via the website and are out of stock. Group buy is the only way to get a UBQ. Count one more in for the group buy.

The order has been placed. There were not enough reds to make a production so all will be black. Bruce

Not really and easy way.
At times during the year Bruce might decide to try one for interest.
If he does it will just be posted here. You will need to just be checking weekly.
You can buy through other sources.
Google unibrace vw gti mk7. Look for the German aftermarket vendors who sell them. See if they can order what you want. I feel the UBQ in worth it.
Good shopping.
One of the guys who ordered one just put it in the classifieds section. Not sure if it's still available.
For those that have already installed the UBQ - how did you access the underbody? Ramps, jack stands, lift? I only ask because I was planning on using ramps or jack stands, but was worried about the brace lining up with the bolt holes if the car wasn't perfectly balanced and the body flexes. If it's a potential issue, I can wait a month until I can get it on a lift, but I'd like to put it in sooner.

The car does need to be level.
Did not hear is wheels supported or not mattered.
Not a hard install but I would have to use two jack stands and two wheel stands and not be sure how level. I used a local non VW shop. One of mechanics had owned a GTI so was familiar with them. I provided the blue loctite and it took them about 40 min from time they got in car and pulled back around. So on lift 20min and 10min more letting me look at it with them and talking GTI's. I paid them $60. This was the estimate, but did not take as long. I paid the estimate to get on the shops good side incase I need more work later.
