Message It's a nice piece, but it appears there's not enough interest, so this may be my last attempt to create more of them...

I have received some interest beyond the one unit I sold recently. I have one buyer who is committed. But in order to make another batch, I have to order a minimum of 4 bars...hence the "group buy". This is not a typical discount-style group buy, but one which depends upon a group to get it off the ground.

This rear strut brace was designed by BrysZ and his water-jetter made four bars for me to test the waters for interest. The one in BrysZ's car as well the one in my car are made to custom lengths. I designed these to be adjustable.

It is water-cut from 6061 billet aluminum. The finish is brushed with black recesses and clear lacquer finish. However if the prospective buyer wants to polish or polish/chrome, or even powdercoat his, I will send it in 220-grit sanded finish. 2 black leather boots are provided to cover the hardware. A template is also provided to show where to cut your shock tower covers with a 2 1/4" or larger holesaw. This bar is for the NA or TT coupe. I have no access to a 2+2 so at his time, there is no application for the 2+2.

Included will be a standard bar for those who show their cars on some weekends and race on others, so that the racer can switch bars and "pre-load" his shock towers prior to racing. The Brysz bar is fully functional, but chunky in cross-section and turning it to pre-load will probably scratch the tower cover plastic. The eye-bolts are left-and-right-hand-threaded for this purpose.

The price on this is $180 plus $15 shipping. My target price was 80% of the Carbing, and this price actually comes in at 65%. I hope my local CNC guy can make these bars for 33% less than what the water-jetting costs. If so, I can bring the price down to @ $150. If there is a lot of interest in this, I will make more, and add it to the website.








Here is my rough unit mocked in place...


...and a mild polish, installed...
