Default Cusco Front Strut Bars Blowout

We have Cusco front strut bars in stock in northern california. They are 170 shipped outside of cali. 170 picked up and 185 shipped withing cali..

These fit the 350z

If any G35 coupe or sedan would like to stop by the shop for a test fit, we can offer a discount on the bar if it fits.

Sadly, their isn't a "if it fits" for the G35. Nissan did not bless the G35 sedan or coupe with the required welded on mounting tabs that the Z has. One can buy the mounts from Nissan for $400, cut them and weld them onto the G35, but that would be on the expensive side.

Let us make a deal then!?! That piece looks to be exactly like the GReddy bar, but the GReddy bar is only $115 or about $130 shipped.

it is not even remotely close to the Greddy bar.

Put the Greddy next to the Cusco and you'll see the difference in ther dimensions of the bar, the quality of the welds, the paint, etc. The Greddy looks like an ebay special in comparison

The greddy bar honestly looks like an ebay bar or a obx style bar. Are you sure you werent looking at the Cusco bar.

Here are some pics of the Cusco as installed on my car

I ahve yet to sell a Greddy one, so I cannot compare the two in the same pic, but Josh is right...in comparison, the Greddy looks like an Ebay Special

I would like one of these, but I don't see Sponsor in Blue under your name? Are you a sponsor on the board?
