    Sorry for the dark photos... I got home much later than expected. These should give you a clear idea of how the bar looks installed.





    Hope these help.

      With a full cage it harder to tell how noticeable it is. But when you have a spec suspension and sway bars set to full stiffness... it the last place to go.

      Spec E30 rules prevent you from running a welded bar from strut to strut. However a bolt-in is permitted.

      I'd be willing to bet it's most noticable on a stock setup.

      Either way... I'm offering these bars at a better price than anyone else. They are very well made. These rear shock tower bars are based on a classic design that has been used in e30's (and e21's and 2002's) since these car's were first introduced.

      If you want one... I have a few more available. On the other hand... if you don't think they are worth what I'm selling them for... don't buy one.

      I appreciate your point of view. I've heard it before. I've also heard the same POV on the front strut bar. I had one in my M Coupe and I've got one in my e30. I like them, as do thousands of other people. But that's just my opinion.

        Not saying the price is outrageous, I actually think its awesome...I'm just a bit skeptical about the actual benefit of it.

        I'll sleep on it!

              I'll shoot you a PM later today.

              I need to make sure the bar will clear my sub in the back.

              If it does, I'll get one :)

                          Finally got around to making measurements, unfortunately it won't fit because of my sub :(

                          Will you be making any tower braces for the front, for M42 fitment?

                              Many people asking about them over there.
