this bar looks alot stiffer than the richie strut bar...what do you guys think? Though the the struts looks stiff..i wonder if the bar itself is solid or stiff...or just like richie's?

I really like the one-piece construction! Eliminates any potential flex you get from all the other FSTB's with multiple pieces, joints, etc...

Looks good. Great price. If I didn't have the Stillen S/C, I'd be ordering one right now...

ditto on that.. no pivot points for any movement.

i'm glad i didn't join the replica group buy. hehe

maybe, we have mass produced the mirrors and do the fenders for local pickups only, same for hoods,

its funny how everyone is so quick to dive into this bar when there were numerous questions that were posed regarding richie's bar before anyone even committed. IMO, all of the questions/concerns regarding richie's bar should be addressed here before anyone can make any decent conclusions about this one.
1) The fitment looks extremely tight on this bar. So a huge concern would be its fitment over plenums (as many people on here have a plenum of some sort)
2) As with richie's bar, it doesn't look like theres much room for those with full coilover setups.
3) Will this bar fit the sedans?
4) fitment for those with blowers? or even an aftermarket intake for that matter..

Im sure there are many other concerns that I missed, but you get the point. Even with the introduction of this bar, I personally still have no regrets with richie's strut bar at all.

I asked about the AC line support bracket, and they said that was a problem for the sedan, but not the coupe
