Color doesn't much matter to me. The most important thing is accomodating the EDFC...

I haven't had a strut bar for the last 8 months.

Please everyone, use the list. Quote the poster above that has the list, and then add your name to the list. Keep the list going. It is much easier to look at the list then try to go through and see what everyone wants individually. Thank you for the help.

The polished aluminum is silver. At this time I do not have good color pictures as it is still in the prototype stages. Jason

EDFC (Electronic Damping Force Controller) makes it possible for the driver to control the damping force by controlling a motor installed in the shock absorber while being seated in the driver's seat. (stole that from tein's site)

if that first pic is titanium, i like. Why would a strut bar have a cf look? makes no sense...I want it to portray strength and durability not light weight...plus i dont want that stuff peeling off or anything.

Its actually the same Aluminum bar the Ti look bar would be, but with a Real carbon fiber wrap on it. That is why Mike prefers the polished, it has less weight because it does not have the CF and resin on it. It should not peel.

I'd actually like to see a nice gunmetal, but I guess titanium is the closest equivalent.

I like the polished bar but will the ends be a different color like the cusco bar or will the whole bar be polished?

At this time, I do not know. With it still being in the prototype stages, I can not answer that yet. Jason

That would be the polished. It would be a polised aluminum. No paint. Jason
