      the best way to get it painted black is to get some paint stripper and strip the red paint off....then u can hang the bar from a tree or somewhere and use a spray paint.

      install is pretty much straight forward...you'll have to jack up either sides of the car (to ease the install) sometimes its goes on easily without jacking the car.

      Installing the 3rd hole is optional...if you are tracking the car, its highly recommended as it could be somewhat of a pain, you'll have to drill in the 3rd hole and get a short bolt and bolt it in...and the stock springs will make it hard to work with too. but everything shouldnt be too hard..an afternoon will do.

        installed it,






        does it look right? the only thing is I had to put it under the engine throttle wires because when it was over them it would mess with the idle.

          You are supposed to bend the bracket so they go under, and make sure bending it doesn't keep the throttle open. You are also supposed to drill a hole and mount the 3rd bolt on the side.

            That's not true, that is totally optional.

              I think Sparco put it there for a reason...

                i agree, Sparco did put the 3rd hole there for a reason....for even more rigidity i'd say. but i've seen so many people get away without the 3rd hole.

                I personally would put in the 3rd hole...but that's of course up to you.

                        What's the final price on the bar shipped? If it is not for two weeks then I'll probably do it.

                        Thanks.

                              Post your name and e-mail address...then wait for Franklin to get the rest of the bars in and ship them out after payment is recieved.
