If you like to drive at insane amounts of speed, like I do,
you'd better watch those bolts. Other then that it looks
really good!:evil::evil:

You have too much thread exposed on the eye bolts. You need to make the bar longer so that the bolts will thread into the bar further. Even if they don't break, they'll be flexing and reducing the effectiveness of the bar.

Well, everyone has alreadt said what I would.

You have a definate weak spot where those bolts are. Persoanlly, I would never buy a strut tower brace or even use one that bolts into the end like that.

These are the ones I use for my car.



notice how the connect?
