Here are some of my recent developments: Custom Carbon Fiber Wrapped OEM Strut Bar: (it's also FS, PM me for details)











As most of you know, the stock strut bar is arguably the best one for our cars. Not to mention it's the only self-adjusting bar on the market. However, it looks a bit ugly... which is easily fixable now

With the new carbon fiber reinforcing it, the stock bar is even more rigid!

Newer developments to come:
Custom CF Headlights w/ CCFLs and Audi-style LEDs!

UPDATE: Pics added to Joe's car!

 

Nice! Wish mine still fit. Pics of it on the car?

 

Nice... How?

 

Nice. That's exactly what I want to do. You should type up a DIY guide

 

nicely done...

 

Very nice. Is that hard to do?

 

I'm gonna get some pics of it on a car tomorrow when I drop by Function:TUNED since my car is there.

As far as difficulty goes; it might be very difficult for beginners if you've never had any previous experience doing any kind of autobody work and/or fiber-glassing. Not to mention it's freakin' expensive!

 

Abui01's next post: "My custom carbon fiber wrapped Z."

 

LOL I was actually expecting a picture of that when I first came in.

 

The CF wrap looks nice

How about a little recon on my car while you are there. Is there a dyno under it yet?

 

Hey I lied to you on the phone I never tried a stock OEM one to see if it will fit you wanna trade back if it fits and did you get the picture I sent yesterday?

 

^ I'll check it out for you later Cass, and while I'm at it... I think I'm gonna add more to that install list...... i keed i keeeed =)

Never got the picture you sent yesterday Joe unless you mean the one of your car under mine @ the shop on Facebook, LOL. If it's a camera phone pic, resend it (memory was full on my cell.) Post up the Greddy bar in marketplace, it'll be easy for you to resell, I got a couple PMs per day for a whole week asking for it.

I'll use your car as a model to take pics w/ the stock OEM bar today if ya don't mind!

 

OK, my engine bay is the only part of my car that is not painted but its all good.

 

Looks good, abui01!

 

by strut bar dont fit no more, plenum spacer too big, lol

 

Spacers Just use washers.... Had to do the same on mine

 

Thanks for the comments guys

Which one do you have?

MD 5/16th spacer = stock bar fits
MD 1/2 inch spacer = stock bar fits w/ hood spacers (sold separately)
AAM spacer = stock bar fits w/ 2 washers on passenger side, 3 washers on driver's side.
Skunk2 Spacer = stock bar will NOT fit, might want to opt for aftermarket strut bar

 

He has the Skunk 2....

 

yuuup, i got the skunk 2, tried washers but then it sits too hight for the hood, lol

 

What hood do you have I have the VS ver 3 hood and it would hit the hood everytime.
