Default Rear Strut Bar that Requires NO Cutting?

As the topic title suggests, I'm looking for a rear strut bar that does_not_require cutting/alteration of the rear panels to fit.

I had my mind set on the PasswordJDM RSB, but after finding out that you have to cut the panel surrounding the rear strut towers, I am back to square one again.

Is there such a bar that would require no cutting? I have a 93 Civic Si hatch, BTW.

You're going to have to either cut the panels or remove them. There's no way you can have a bar go from the top of one shock tower to the other without going through that panel.

i have the it-r style rear bar. you need to trim a bit, but if you do it right, the trimming can be covered up by the shock tower covers if you remove the bar later

Vtecin94dx...cool avatar. LOL.

That would be very helpful if you guys post pictures!

I don't want to have to carve up my interior to fit a bar that will likely make a minimal difference.
