Loose Front Strut Bar
Will it damage anything? When I re-installed my suspension, the bolts that holds the right-side strut bar just gave out on me. The screw just ripped in half (cheap steel ftw). It's been making a 'wobbly' noise, but besides that it seems fine. Also my emergency brake doesn't work, anyone having a similar problem?
I only have two bolts holding my front strut bar on each side and it's been like that for almost two years. When I did my suspension swap, I stripped the bolts trying to take them off. You should be alright.
My handbrake doesn't work as well as it used to either. I can't help you out there but I'm looking forward to seeing if anyone has any suggestions.

one of two things for your e-brake. 1. The cable needs to be tightened, you have to remover the rear part of the center console to get to the adjustment nut. 2. Your brake shoes for the e-brake are worn down too much.
Strut bar should be fine. As for e brake, you can try adjusting via center console and if that doesnt work, tighten it via the hub in the rear. There is a rubber cover on the front of the rotor, pop that out and you'll see where needs to be tightened
