This is the rear so no need for clearance... I had the full set, it's full CF, that why it's so light...

Fitment is perfect, it definitely is incredibly lightweight and yet feels strong if you try and flex it. It was really expensive when I bought it new, so I am not surprised that it is full CF. Cleared the EDFC no problem.

I have this strut bar as well and it looks great when installed, and as others have mentioned incredibly light. Bump for you

I installed sways at the same time, so I can't honestly say how much of a difference in feel you will get just from this bar. The combo of the Daizen rear sway and this STB was definitely a noticeable difference, but I would think an upgraded swaybar provided most of the change on such a heavy car.
