    I'm looking at getting an Icon stage 4 kit, trying to figure out if I should go with tubular or billet UCA's? Talking about approx $500 difference, worth the money to go Billet?

    I've been looking at the same thing. It doesn't seem like there's any advantage. The cost is higher on the billet kit because their cost is higher also. Seems more about looks than function.

    i would say since they all do the same thing save yourself 500 bucks and just get tubular arms.

    If there is no need to have built in adjustment on your uppers with heims, than no need for the billet.

    But than again, I suppose looking cooler at the mall is a justifies the purchase as well. :)
