Looks like I'll be buying something new from Pierce after this...

I just noticed I busted my FSWerks lower front stress bar. I'm surprised I didn't see this earlier this week when I changed my oil. My best guess this happened after a rock strike on Angeles Crest.

I remember that rock as I was behind you and had to dodge it.

IT WAS HUGE.

Very true. I shudder to thing what would have happened if that bar wasn't in front of the transmission housing...

I had a Cucso lower tie bar on my Accord coupe back in the day, and it didnt last very long cause the shit roads in my area. The German roads are alot better but I think if i was to get another I would just put it on when I went to the track


*edit* ugg sorry, just realized this post is 2 months old
