Thumbs up JBP Strut Bar Installed

Ended up getting a JBP strut for pretty cheap used, and i hadnt really seen anyone with one so i thought it was nice unique touch to the car. I'm going to end up having it powdercoated along with my valve cover. here's a couple pics.





and figured i'd throw in another of my recently installed hood for the hell of it.

Its been said that strut bars really dont do anything for these cars. I guess its more cosmetic.
