Cheaped out?

Besides, JBP > OBP.

Oh, I hated those gold flakes, they are what turned me away from the black and made me like White a ton more.

FINALLY!...and when i mean finally...i mean FINALLY!

My first S203 Part has arrived, it sucks buying all these JDM parts because they take days to ship from Japan. Well anyway i finally got my Front Strut bar. It didnt exactly go in just right. As you can see from the pictures below i had to modify the braket next to the intercooler holding some piping so that the strut bar would sit correctly. But after it was all said and done, damn did it look good.

The Bar

The Logo

The Mod

Finished!


Still waiting on the S203 Dash trim, and i just ordered the S203 Shift trim and Shift boot, so be on the look out for those updates when they come along.

Thanks again

Will

Nah, IMO strut bars are way over rated. Unless you get F+R sturt bars, and the Cusco under braces, and the cusco rare braces, you wont see much of a difference with just a F Sturt Bar. If you want to feel a differenace go buy some Cobb Sway bars. Only reason i got the F Sturt bar was becuase it was part of the project.
