The brackets can be customized to a point... but if you have an enclosure that is in that area, it will probably be in the way. This bar sits in a more forward position than the Stillen bar, and is located in the center of the shock towers - hopefully providing more support and less movement. Like I said though , we're testing it now and will be taking a car to the track to see if it makes a difference.

Don't know how beneficial a 1 piece bar would be unless the brackets are welded to the shock towers... plus the current design makes it pretty easy to take out if necessary. I'm sure if a 1 piece bar was in high demand we could easily make em.

We were already talking about it... I'm guessing that the sedan has a different span between towers, but I'm not really sure. With a little testing and measuring, I'm sure we can get a sedan version made.

Now that's something I've been waiting for...
