what brand spacers?
did you have to change the screws to longer ones?
Tailer made in Hong Kong, 100% fit and no vibrate after installed on Thu night.
There should have two way,
1> Change longer screws
2> Add 5 more holes on that spacers then use 10 screws per wheel.

AK told me depend on your existing wheel structure to choice why way is better. Mine one is option 2.

And believe it or not, with the tower bar installed, the car feels softer (more comfort) while crusing back home last night, strange!

May be due to that two front shock and spring moving up and down as the same time

BillHK,
Just want to remind your that your year 2006 LCI interior trim may not be as same as ours before 09/2005. Please double check before go ahead.

Guys, just installed the RPI scoop and tower bar at AK place last night, the installation wasn't as easy as i thought but well.....nothing will be difficult in AK47 hands!!!

With the flipping vents removed (In order to install the scoop), the car feels more power as more fresh air can be sucked into the air box.
And believe it or not, with the tower bar installed, the car feels softer (more comfort) while crusing back home last night, strange!

I don't care performance, Just that good outlook is worse to install. Pingy, please speed up process.

Perhaps, less "Un-even" vibration at the shocks = More comfy
