Yea that might be true, but i think it might be more of a headache for the passengers that have to sit underneath it.

I know it doesn't do much..........but not all.........in stiffening, but I want to buy this cuz I don't like when people hold on the grap handles............it dirty's the headliner. Dang, there is a handle on the door to hold on to.............and its closer too, lol.

Monster Motorworks..........are u still alive? I want a group buy.

Maybe they were not paying attention, lol.

Hey, if someone said that it feels stiffer/tighter, then it works.

Cee-dub, u got my PM. Should I talk to MMW about it?

What ever happened to the group buy? I notice the MSRP is now $100. Looking less attractive all the time.

HAHAHAHAHA, that's the stupidest thing I've seen yet. There's a reason why NO other brands make bars like these, because people who know better know that it provides no structural support or chassis reinforcement.

Sorry, I don't mean to hate, but these products are just getting rediculous. Seriously, $100 can get you alot farther if you invested in something more worthwhile, like swaybars. And if you have swaybars already, then I hope you guys are already smart enough to know that you're wasting your money buying this piece.

Really? Can you prove to us their is not structural benefit to these? Why is it a waste of money?
