Love it. No issues at all. Also, I only have the front 2 bars installed at this point. The exhaust piping is in the way for the back one.

so what do you think about the value of these bars?
is it worth every penny like the SB!

for me I think it is worth even penny and 1 of the cheapest mods to get a better and faster car on road and track days.
also I find I use less braking on normal drive going round corners at speeds of 60km.

i installed just the fornt one so far. it doesn't minimize body roll as i thought it would, BUT it does help me alot especially when hard cornering because the steering is more direct into the turns

why only the front
you can just install 1 bar but the function of the design will not work 100%.
to make the car stiff you can not just have 1 bar installed, need at lest the front and middle
if you have time install the rear 1s
front is very good for sharpen the steering wheeling feedback too.

Awaiting a little more feed back from our members to get me going on this one.

If people have installed this please write a detailed review
(I see many of us are detailed and are great on explanations)

just installed the middle bar. it helps alot. when it comes to body roll but i got the same problem with the damn exhaust in the way. i ended up jacking the exhaust up a little to move it around but it wasnt enough to take that long ass bolt out of the way.
