Angry front strut bar vibrating

Has anyone else had problems with their front strut bar sitting so close to engine that it vibrates? I have checked that all bolts are tightened three times. Thanks.

Get an RRM. They're made correctly. Or if you have mucho cash, get an RMR.

getting one from the vendor rddesigns (pdxralliart) is the best choice imo, great quality and cheaper than rrm and rmr.

i got the kbar and it gets the job done, but i would recommend a rear sway bar upgrade. that is by far the best suspension upgrade i have done yet and i thought it would be the least noticable
