Damn bro that STB Bar looks like night and day from when I had it haha Turned out great. I'm glad it reduced your body roll and is improving your handling Originally Posted by MrG4Life
Got this STB from a fellow CL member (thanks Kevin) this past December. I was looking for a solid one piece STB for the car to provide some sort of help with the body roll I tend to experience. I took some cues from past & present 1GS & 2GS members to dress up my STB and added my personal touch to it prior to installation. I polished the hell out of the entire bar and then used some leftover black caliper paint. I finished off the ends by spraying clearcoat on them. For the install I used my stock scissor jack to lift my car high enough to slide my regular jack under to the crossmembers to finish raising the car. For this particular STB, the engine cover needed to be removed but I managed to keep the cover on and man was that a mistake. I really liked the look of my engine cover on with the STB but it simply couldn't be done. I ended up with crazy amounts of vibrations which was unbearable. I ended up removing the cover and saw scrapes on top of the cover left by the STB. There's nothing amazing about my engine bay since it's pure stock with the exception of the STB now. Next item will be sway bars.Before:

My bad forgot to mention that it might not clear the engine cover
