BRZ/FR-S Strut Tower Brace - Any Interest? - Page 78 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Got home and the box was sitting waiting for me. After quick inspection, the box was undamaged. All corners were square. No rips like the other members on here. Fast forward to the install, it took less time than inspecting the box/bar itself. Overall, this part has got to be the most cost efficient and favorite mod/addition so far. Although I don't have many mods to begin with haha!

My red strut bar was waiting patiently at my front door in perfect condition. Looks great and I can't wait to install it! Thanks!

Same boat for me. I haven't been in a rush yet. I figure by the time this comes out I'll be ready, where it's 4 months to 10 months from now.

You should do a package deal, I'd be in LOL.

Just installed mine today... here's a shot.. not too close-up so you can get a sense of the size compared to surroundings. (Check the OP cuz I think he might be considering offering turn-key brackets at some point down the line for those (like me) that don't have the time to source the parts.)

This shot does point out (to me) that I'd love to get the OEM braces to match up with the powercoat. But then... I take a deep breath and realize that 99% of the time, no one is going to see the inside of the engine bay....

^^^Wow, that got there fast! Glad to see it worked out for you.

I am going to install a black Grimmspeed bar tomorrow on a Raven FR-S. I might video it....

Ya closest city to me is 2 hrs + guarantee a full day to collect all these bits. So that for me would be a 150 dollar day.

welp... i guess mine won't be arriving for another week. fedex says it's going back to shipper because the package was damaged. o well.

Mine has been treating me well so far. The road to work is horrible with constant construction lately. Seems like the bar just helps the suspension do its job, need to go flog it and really put it to the test.
