thanks for the compliments guys. I have mismatched wheels on right now... so sideshots would be ugly at this point.

I think i decided on wheels tho..

If I were you I'd go all out and get the Mugen GP's. Nonetheless, the car looks great!

Whatever wheels you buy, make sure they have a REAL offset. +30 or less. Jono is a wheel whore, I'm sure he can give you a million suggestions.

It doesn't go under the radiator. It goes between the frame and the lip, which means it mounts to the frame.

If you decide to put the bar on, remember one thing: if you hit something directly, you will tear apart your bumper as well as crack the lip across the surface. If you don't install the frame mount and hit something directly on, all you are damaging is the lip @ most and a few scratches on the bumper. Although the frame mount keeps the lip on securely, I would rather not use it, which I learn directly from experience. You don't need it for DD since you won't be going 120mph on the freeway anyways.

you are right!!! it goes on the frame just like the instruction said..but what im trying to saty is they have to lift the radiator for easy installation of the bar to the car reinsforcement...and THANKS for your comment expierience,,, yahh i ididnt use my car for DD..but i used too since i dont have any car...and i never drive faster than 100mph..jajajaj.. aight dude..ill post some pic of the car..tomorrow..:mwink:

Jerry being its not the real bar it might not be the same setup....maybe i can scan the actual mugen directions monday at work....But anyways theres the bar then theres two brackets that come off the bar. With the mugen one it has two nut plates that both have two nuts welded to them that mount the bar and than theres the two brackets that come off the bar that the lip mounts to...I have mine installed never had a problem with it and without it the lip sagged a little and droooped underneath.
