Ah, ok. The current revision fits exactly as well as a Cobb front bar. Glad to see you guys aren't settling on that.

Edit: also, put a roll center kit on that car- look at the angle of the a-arm! (Money grows on trees, dontchyaknow.)

Check out Matweb.com for properties of more materials than you can shake a stick at.

The material science answer is that the elastic modulus (basically the stiffness of a material) is determined by the forces between the individual molecules of the material. Since all steels are predominantly iron, they have the same elastic modulus, IIRC, 200 GPa. The trace elements, chromium, molybdenum, vanadium, etc. affect other properties like yeild and tensile strength, resistance to corrosion etc.

Hey, I remembered something from 6 years in Engineering school!

I actually think that'd be awesome. They'd "match" my coilovers.

Damn you. When Mike called me the other day I decided I'd order them while I had him on the phone and they were out. Gimme them.

Looks like another nice product. But the Cobb bars that are currently on my car serve my needs.

I LOVE the fact that you took the extra step to do an anti-walking tab.

My vote goes for flat black...stock looks, aftermarket performance!

These look very nice. Color wise black, chrome, or bare would be cool. Nice job
