This bar has been confirmed to fit on both coupes and sedans, 2003 to present. The bar clears ALL current plenum upgrades on the market as well. However, it will not fit if you are Stillen supercharged. This strut bar has cleared the Vortec supercharger (thanks Brando)! Fitment may also vary slightly depending on various carbon fiber hood applications. Under the factory hood, the bar slightly touches the hood insulator, but is not a problem. This strut bar might NOT work with some aftermarket coilovers - adjustment **** on struts extends upwards too much and hits the tower bracket. Works with Tein BASICS, Flex + EDFC, ....
Now for the pricing. Since this is a group buy, we will need a minimum of 20 people. If we are able to get 20 people, the price will be $225 SHIPPED to the lower 48 (APO/Canadian orders please add $25)!! The MSRP for the bar is $349 + shipping. We anticipate to sell these bars at a regular price of $275 shipped. Anyone that is interested should send this amount ($275) via Paypal to maydang18@yahoo.com and your name will be added to the GB list.
*****Please include g35driver username in NOTES section when submitting payment*****
This GB is scheduled to end Midnight, March 1, so get your orders placed!!
At this point, you will have 2 options:
Option 1= Send $275 as you have committed to purchasing the bar and it will ship out as soon as payment is received. If/once we are able to reach 20 buyers, we will refund you the difference.
Option 2= Send $75 deposit and wait until we have reached the 20 buyer minimum and then send the remaining balance of $150. Bars will be shipped once the remaining balance has been received.
