Strut Brace Question
 
I'm thinking of buying a front strut brace for my 2006 coupe mainly for cosmetic purposes. My car already has Hotchkis anti-sway bars, Bilstein struts, and Tein S-Techs, so I'm not expecting a strut brace to do much performance wise, and that's okay. I'm looking at the Megan strut bar mainly because it is dirt cheap and I like how it looks (I know Megan is typically crap and I wouldn't buy Megan for anything important). I do need to know, however, if the Megan will clear my 5/16th inch spacer and allow me to keep my factory engine cover. If anyone has this strut brace and could let me know what kind of clearance it has, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks

I read through that entire thread the other night, unfortunately nobody mentions the Megan.

Here's a link to the bar, btw http://www.ultrarev.com/Megan-Racing...iorityCampaign

Megan is a company that rips off people who did their own R&D designing proper strut braces. If you spend a lot of time :driving: and not sitting at car meets I'd recommend better.

Richie upper strut bar was the first mod I made after getting Stillen sways and Power Grid end links! Rubs in two places but just a fraction with my 1/2" spacer, upgraded to -8 bolts since the bolts it came with were cheap stainless Chinese POS!

I can't recall what member here installed one with there spacer and it cleared. If you go and dig near the bottom of the what did you do to the sedan today thread there's talk of it there with a pic as well!

Would the strut bar help or is it all looks?

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner. Found the thread with the photos just where you said they would be. Thanks, buddy.
