I have not purchased through matrussell122 but I have been around long enough and have seen absolutely nothing that would make me question his honesty, integrity and commitment towards the community. I wish you would not be a litle f baby and try to ruin someones life because he made a simple mistake or something.

I got some of the first bars that were made way back when. Zero issues and they showed up in the advertised amount of time.

Matt has been very helpful to me over the last several years. Not only did I purchase 2 bars from him, he was helpful in how to build a front duct and his guidance on fender louvers and his pics were super helpful. I can't believe that one pain in the *** customer whose feathers were ruffled is making such a ******* issue to have contacted his employers. My approval of top notch seller and product Fully endorsed !!!

Just ordered and received a bar from Matt. Good communication and prompt shipping Welds and paint are solid. Can't wait to get this in with an oil cooler.

@matrussell122 Might consider a metal strip (with holes?) that over hangs the top bar that would permit mounting other elements...like ducting or oil coolers.

Check my build thread. I used rivnuts to secure my ducting to the bar. Rivnuts are plenty strong to mount both ducting and an oil cooler. You could even throw an extra little bit going to the oem hood latch bolt point and have a really secure spot for a cooler.

Thing worked great for me! Huge intercooler fit great and so far no over heating issues.
