...and that it has no bends, has solid mounting points (no hinges, no adjustments), looks OEM and that they are actually gathering data to make sure it actually has a benefit. I look at the bars like Cusco and just shudder. I feel like I could break them over my knee.

Plus, I have to hand it to GS for making something that looks like it belongs in the engine bay. There's another company, that shall remain nameless, that is working on something similar (robust with no frills) and I'm really torn. Everything else seems either too flashy, too thin or too bendy. A lot of companies just say, "Hey new car, let's throw a bar on it and sell tons and make huge monies!" without testing to see if it DOES anything. And if they do, they aren't sharing.
