Stillen Strut Bar

They are advertizing for coupes - but most others fit sedan as well... is there any reason this wouldn't fit sedan?

Not that I know of. It is essentially the same as the RSTB with a different T6 aluminum that allows for those central holes. You have to call for pricing. Just give them a call about the pricing and ask them about the fitment on sedans at the same time or V V

Finally Stillen comes out with one. Looks to be using the same design as the ARC/Richie replica. Hopefully it's made of stainless steel and not aluminum.

the email blurb says made of billet aluminum... But I'm wondering if there is any reason it wouldn’t fit sedan if it fits coupe... the Richie strut bar fits both as do others... the engine bay is pretty similar and the strut towers (location/orientation) are the same right?...

Then there's the age old question. Will it fit over plenum spacers up to 1/2"?

good point - the pic is small so I can’t tell for sure, but it doesn’t look like there is height adjustability like Richie's...

It will fit the sedan.

Looks like the engine cover won't fit but a spacer is a maybe...

hmmm... so someone without a spacer wants a strut bar... I think they'll sell maybe....... ZERO!

Do they know their market?... Why would they make a design that doesn't compliment/work in conjunction with other mods? Maybe they think people will take their spacer off to get this bar to fit

Stillen - fire the marketing guy and the design guy!!! You blew it on this one.
