The front tie bar is by skunk (i think) its acutally made for the civic, but my mechnic made it fit on our car. Since its the only one that can clear the headers.

I think he's looking for the part number through skunk (?) to see if he can order the same thing.

Is your rear tie bar going to be completely custom made, or is your wrench going to start with an existing part and modify it ?
Also, do you know exactly where your rear tie bar is going to be bolted ? What made of ?

Thanks Crzy. We copycats appreciate details

Its going to be the DC sport tie bar, but its going to have brackets made so it can be mounted on the rear. You need to make brackets for it, and thats what the shop is doing. I will get details by Thursday. I will take my camera to the shop to take pictures from under the car so you can get an idea.

here is a pic of the DC sport tie bar on a CLS.... he was the first one to get this done. We go to the same garage. only thing im worried about is how low it is. The cls isnt lowered at all, and it seems low as it is. But we will see how bad it will be on my car. Here are the mods on this red CLS.. many mods!! heres the link

If you look closely, you'd notice that the Y-pipe is in the way. Good suggestion though.
