Hey guys!!!!!!!!!!!!! They're coming out with a ONE PIECE strut bar!!!!!! I ordered mine from Kenji Garage on FB. He said they should be shipping in March when they get them. Here's a link for the correct part. Personally, I've been holding off on getting a bar because I wanted a one piece. Yes, I know about Whiteline but I wasn't sure about the look. Here's another good option. I'll update in March when I get it.

Looks great but don't forget, Ultra Racing has a one piece steel bar too.

I don't like where the bar meets the ends on that one. The hard angles.

i havent installed mine as i still need to install the PRL flexfuel kit. i tried to just drop it on but that didnt work so im going to have to jack up the car a bit. they provide this plastic protector you're supposed to put around a few of the wires to protect them from the bar. they didnt put much on that in the instructions though. hardware provide is probably the cheapest you can buy so i'd suggest getting some from downstar if you have the budget.

This is by far the cheapest strut bar i could see now in the market..... If Im not mistaken, DC sports just launched it on March 2019...

I've always installed one piece front strut bars with the wheels on level ground. You sure they recommend jacking it up?

Mine just got delivered today. Will be installing after work. These things take like 10 min to install. You don’t need to jack up the car or nothing. I have installed strut bars on like 6 different cars.

Mine literally doesnt fit around the strut bolts so i’m forced to raise the car up to get it on.
