Awesome Zack, your bar came out very nice. They did a great job on the chroming. I'm sure you got a ton of compliments/inquires at HIN.

So what would happen if I added this along with my Stillen I already have installed. Would it be pointless or super awesome?

Looks great, BTW.

Thanks guys!

Not sure on pricing yet, still needs to be track tested and possibly tweaked based on results. I had a few people asking about them at HIN this weekend, so hopefully we'll have them ready soon.

or just make it out of a rectangle cf tube. Could Easily fill the ends with resin for added mounting support. Or just mill metal inserts for the ends.
The problem with all of this is that real strut bars are not just tubes... they're chambered into sections inside for strength. And on top of that, cf is not strong enough unless it's solid. Otherwise, it will fold under pressure, or hard driving.

Not really a replica. It will be an aluminum under panel that is similar in design, but not a 1 for 1 knock off. We're a little behind on a couple projects right now... but with the show season over we should be able to get a few things wrapped up!

If you don`t know what it`s used for, how do you have an opinion about it and come to the assumption that its useless?
