u would be surprised how much the harness bar actually stiffens up the middle of the car. Its a very good structural mod

More of a fanboy mod unless used properly. Want better handling than a harness bar, Under car rails are a good start.

individual parts are all plasma cut or machined, bent and now they go in the jig to be welded.

That will happen at the beginning of next week; fabi has other jobs to complete. Then they go for pc and shipping at the end of next week , god willing the creek dont rise.

o wait

creeks awfully high

Ps I was going to take pictures of some of the progress, but then it would be apparent how we make them. so decided not to. But they are a very well made sturdy set of parts and thats the truth.

So this could help with the upper portion of the car creaking etc when I go over bumps?

I never had them until I mixed the XXX bar and stance coilovers together...

Of course down the line it'll be put to proper use...

What's the price of these?

Well seeing where and how it's mounted looks like it'll aid in upper flex short of a full on roll cage....
