Modified a dodge neon strut bar to fit today. Drilling the holes was really the only hard part and it was a pain because I didn't have the right size drill bit, then my battery kept dieing on my drill. I used my stock strut bar on top for a custom 3-point. I don't have any pics right now, maybe tomorrow when the sun is out (just finished about 10 minutes ago and it's about 1 am now. lol) I dunno if it's going to make any difference yet, as I won't be able to drive my car until at least the 28th...

quintingt has that setup. he said he noticed some difference over the neon or stock strut bar alone. but its not as great as a real 3-point cuz the neon bar is aluminum and flexes. i was thinking of doing this cuz i didn't wanna spend 300+ on a name brand.
