does anyone have a oem gsr upper front strut bar on their coupe? i picked one up for cheap and later found out that there is drillin involved (since ther arent any holes) after doin a search. do any of u have info on this? also, do u feel any difference after installation?
i've got a Cusco OS front strut bar and it bolts on just like the GSR and Si bars. there should be two small divets on the inner side of your strut towers. basically just set the bar up between the struts and try to center it on those two divets on either side. then pick up your favorite drill, drill the holes, and throw on some bolts with lock-nuts.
this is a shot i have on my computer right now, but i'll run out and take a couple more for ya in just a sec.

yeah, just like red said. line it up on the indentions and drill away! good luck with it.
ok, here are the pics i promised. one of the things i like about my Cusco bar is that it mounts EXACTLY like the stock GSR/Si strut bar. if Honda put their bar on that way, it only makes sense to do it the same way. ;)
