I know the rear strut bar is the same as the 205, but I think the front 205 one is wider and will not work, though the bolt holes are the same on the strut towers.

Car looks good, look forward to your new mods.

Edit: maybe we can find a 20x to measure for us.

That would be nice. After thinking about it, the whiteline would provide the same 3 points of stablility as that laile Beatrush one above. It might actually be better since it keept sht solid OEM one.

Don't you have a front whiteline bar on yours? How do you like it?

The rsw is a great mod. It's nice to install it first and drive to see the progressive Changes in handling. It is a pain to install so it may make you want to finish while your in there. You may want to go ahead and take off your sway bar links. There is a good chance they have to be cut off, so it would be the time to order some aftermarket ones.

I don't know. It was dripping the day after I put it on. It was pouring out today. I'm draining the rest and going to redo the gasket.

Well after dropping it. It looks like it was blowing it out the top of the vent :shrug: maybe I over filled it. I swore it was a 1qt fill.

I got the oem shocks ready to pull last night and now I'm waiting on parts. It should be a quick turn around.

You seem excited. ;) just make sure you read the install notes in the box and give everything a good inspection on delivery. Look forward to your driving impressions once you get them installed.

Edit: if you have any questions or problems email me straight away.

I'm leaving from here, but going to the middle east.

That's good that you got one. I'm waiting on mine. I think the further back it is the tighter it is.

I would try the middle and go from there.
