I bought this bar for some time ago but never had the time to install it. Finally i got it installed myself. Removing the fender is quite troublesome as there are 11 mounting bolts/nut all together for one side. Well... after ths installation and test drive, i'm very satisfied with the installation as well as the improvement in handling on my car. Going over bumps feels more solid too. The hard part bout installation is the door position.
