thanks for the pics tim

 

Thanks for the great strut bar.

 

Cool! Thanks for the close-up Tim... I do like the color

Sorry if mine looks similar, but I already had plans to coat it - even asked the boys for a bare bar weeks ago... I have been debating on black chrome or PC - since I have nothing in the trunk (and don’t intend to) I will PC gunmetal, which will likely look similar to your graphite color - nice choice, looks good

Clearly performance is the critical consideration - but my local sedan brethren have beta-tested so I trusted that it was worthwhile prior to ordering (if they were wrong, I'll not consider their opinions again )

Mine is boxed and waiting to be stripped and re-coated - should be done by the time my PITA engine dress-up stiff it done.

Thanks for the pics and review Tim - this is one that I'm looking forward to having on the car!

 

Tim...again thanks!

how long and how many holes did you have to drill in the trunk?

 

None.

You have to cut the liner so the brackets can come through but there is no other modification required. The design of this bar is very well thought out.

 

Does it make as much as a diff as a front strut bar (ive got the Richie GOLD bar)?

So would you say approx install time is under 60 mins?

 

Made more of a noticeable difference for me than my front strut bar (I have the NRG bar, same as the Richie).

 

IMO this helps more than the Richie's front strut bar.

Install time would be a bit over an hour. You need to take out your back seat and measure/cut the liner for the brackets. I could do another in well under an hour but for your 1st, give yourself a little more time than that to be safe.

 

god i love this thing !!

 

thanks to zack, dave, and paul !! i like this better then my ARC bar ...

 

^Very nice!

 

It looks a lot lower on the left side?

 

^^^ +1... the whole thing looks low

 

Your ARC front bar? Um, did ARC make a rear that I don't know about?
