I was thinking about ordering one, but not sure of the fitment. Thanks for the installation. How much did that set you back?

It's not that bad, really. The non-open track savvy consumer would probably not notice it. It does not disrupt the chassis enough to cause any real adverse effects. I would bet a bigger front bar or stiffer front springs would make the car feel even better.

That is a good bar, but ours being 1.0" dia is around 66% stronger, which helps out a lot.

It feels much better, much more stable when taking corners. Worth the price.
