Cool WTB!: Front strut tower bar - 05 wagon

Looking for a decent front strut tower bar. New RSB/endlinks on my ride and I was hoping to add a front strut into the picture too. Car is an 05 wagon so as long as the bar fits 02-07 I think it should be fine. Let me know of ANYTHING that you have to offer PLEASE!

p.s not looking to break the bank on anything really high brand, just a decent bar will do!

I've got a Carbon Style Front Strut bar that I bought for my 06 STI that I ended up not using. I purchased it directly from Gruppe-S.

$75, let me know if you're interested, want pics or what not. PM is best for quickest response.

Well, I won't claim that the fitment is universal across 02-07, but the front strut bars should be fine between sedan and wagon.

The main reason I decided NOT to put this one on my car is because apparently there is a difference in design clearance needed between years 02-05 and 06-07. i have an 06 (aka hawkeye) and the A/C lines were too close to the bar itself to fit for my comfort.

kinda like see this link: Cusco Front Strut bar does not fit 06!! - Subaru Impreza WRX STI Forums: IWSTI.com

I'm fairly sure you'll be just fine, if yours is a 2005 ( aka peanuteye/blobeye).

any other questions?
----

oh, and it was NEVER used. just test mounted and not used due to a/c line issue as mentioned above...so basically its in new condition.
