Pics of new strut bars

Couldn't decide between the suspension tech forum or this one, so if a mod thinks it would go better over there, go ahead and move it.

Here's some pics of the set of strut bars the PDXRalliart makes. I love these things!!!




rear strut bar makes a great place to zip tie a small sub to keeps it from rolling around back there.


now I just have to match my valve cover and fuse box to that thing

the bars, no. the valve cover yes, really easy, just take of the coilpacks and plug wires, a few other misc wire clips attached to it and then unbolt it. I cleaned it with a damp towel, let it dry and then painted it with about 4 coats of the paint
