When installing the front bar, did you guys keep the hood latch? Is the lower support needed if you do?
|
It is not needed. I ran without it for quite some time before i went to hood pins.
|
|
Will cutting out that center support cause rigidity issues on the track or if you have to use the front tow hook?
|
My car adds an extra variable of being seam welded, but I've run without it for a long time and never noticed it. There's a bit of discussion either in the diy aero thread or weight loss thread (I don't remember which) and the conclusion was that it was pretty much negligible. I've also used my tow hook in a couple of occasions and never had a problem.

Front Bar

Some bars primed and ready to go out monday. Should have the rears done early next week! Thanks all you guys for you support, input and patience!
Also ignore my hi tech paint booth. https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...7ebb9bcb7c.jpg |
Got my parts in the mail a few days ago. They look good and will post pictures once installed.
|
Everyone left on the list that ordered or wants a bar, I will have made and ready for paint Friday. Once painted the ones that have been paid for will ship out on Saturday/Monday.
Also ordering a bunch more material so if anyone else wants a bar or pair of bars send me a PM! |

Finally got around to installing mine last weekend
Sorry for the glare, it was obviously really sunny and hot. To coincide with the new front bar I also installed a set of push button Quik-Latches in the bumper to secure near the fender as the old plastic tabs have since snapped off. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...7b67c6d787.jpg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...ded33c8d07.jpg |
Here's mine with radiator ducting in place.

What material is your ducting made of?
|
More material should be in tomorrow so if you want to get a bar now is the time!
|
The front bars had a slight revision this round to drop a little more weight and gain some extra clearance around the blinker. So all front bars form here on out will have the updated plate design.

weight reduction - 1/2 lbs? i have not yet installed the original. I guess the end plates could be trimmed.
|
That looks great!
