well...i'm not positive that it bends but a good source of information told me it was....but it seems like it would bend cuz of the flat bar design opposed to that of a round tubular design like that of a spoon strut tower bar

I was gonna say to get a 3 point strut bar but looks like you already got a skunk.

Let us know what you think of the skunk bar after you get it on.

The Skunk 2 is good, as well as Mugen, and the OEM GS-R bar, which is what I got in my coupe and works pretty darn good.

honestly IMO DC's suspension products are retarded.
Their strut tower bars do bend especially the rear tower bar. If you see one grap it and push up and down, it's like a flimsy peice of plastic.
