Default Custom 3 point front upper strut bar for the EF 88-91 Civic/Crx

Thought I would post the workmanship. Another strut bar to add to my collection. Finished it yesterday. I was very pleased with the end result. You can retain the factory location of the fuse box. It clears the Integra MC and Booster. The back firewall bolts up to factory holes. It will clear D,B,H and possibly K series EF's. Also available for EG/EK/DC.

PM with any questions!

Just like the rear 3 point strut bar you have FS, that thing must weight a lot. It's mild steel right?

edit: Just saw your site, it is mild steel and $179 .

The bar weighs in right around 8 lbs not too heavy at all.

8 lbs is very heavy for a strut bar. the carbing 3 point weights roughly 2-3 lbs, although its made of different metal, probly chromoloy.
