Cool Autoexe 6 Point Strut Bar

Morning Paul!

Was wondering if you guys seen this beauty yet or any up close and personal pics of it? If you notice to the left also is their new rear strut bar. Looks...rigid. ...Kind of rigid like a ..Submarine!

I sell that kit although this is not the best time to get it with the currency exchange. We'll see what early 09 does for us in the US.

With the front bumper that I was selling as well. That kit is just beautiful. The prices are just rough right now.

the 6 point is straight up sexy but it is going to be difficult to work on the engine bay

So you really noticed a difference in stiffness?

i had these strut bars ordered from Paul, then they took forever and i sold them to transamkid before they ever shipped to me

I will say that the JIC 4pt i have now makes oil changes a very difficult experience. Recommend to get an oil filter relocation kit before installing a 4pt

Well I did put my MS strut bars and RB sways on at the same time sooooo,,,
Its really hard to tell if they made a big difference soley, but I'd say my 8 is one of the stiffest Ive been in...
other suspension mods are AP say endlinks and Tein type flex coils w/ EDFC,
DD I usually ride the damping force at 10 in the front and 12 in the rear, when I get tired of the bumps or am in the city usually 02 fr and 04 rear...
