i saw it online, it resembles closely to that of a Cusco strut bar

anyway, i was in absolute awe when i saw it.. thinking "whoa, never seen this before on a 6th gen"
it's not in the Parts Database, so i'm guessing it is now discontinued? or maybe atleast it's very rare.

here are some pics: (u can never get sick of pics..)

well, i just got it in earlier today, and because i haven't worked for 2 weeks straight due to an injury on my right leg, i had nothing else to do and i just HAD to install it!
you know how it is when you get a part you've been waiting to get... hehe biggrin.gif



here it is installed:

unfortunately, the power steering reservoir is sort of in the way and now it's tilting slightly to the inside when the bar is in place.. i'm guessing it's located elsewhere on a gt-four. but let's just hope that the bar does it's job and doesn't push the reservoir any further during a hard turn or else i'll have a big problem.

also, since the bar is meant for an st205, it kinda bridges upward.. which makes the stock hood hard to close. but that's okay.... for now wink.gif
