So, some of you may know that I LOVE little knick knack bars going up, down, left, right, and diagonal in my car.

I've been looking for some sweet bars for a while now since I don't like those plain ol' tiny Megan ones. (C pillar bar and whatnot)

So, I stumbled onto "GT Spec"GTSPEC

They make soem cool bars.tower bars, C pillar bars, trunk bars, and whatnot.

So, I decided to get some. I got the C pillar bar, trunk bar, and lower bar for the toe links on the subframe.

Well, I have not installed them yet, but HOLY ****. These are AMAZING.the bars are solid design and BEEFY.

The C pillar bar looks insane. I love it.

So, I just want to give a heads up to anybody who might be interested in this stuff. They also are painted in some crazy color. bluish/goldish pearl effect.

Sorry, I'm not usually TOO much of a dork about parts, but I am 300% impressed.

discuss.

This is what I took, but note that it is not in good light, so you cant see the pearl.

To me, it almost looks like a Honda color called Tidewater Blue Metallic on the fit. But these are darker.

Looks badass.

I hope to install this weekend.

s13 <3

I just know your next ride is gonna be bad...

I just checked out their site. They have a lot of nice, beefy stuff, although, I wish they had more applications for the s13's... or any other s chassis for that matter. Their fender braces look promising though!

Must strip the sound deadening residue out, then paint the interior.

Sorry, I'll show you a very close up of how it mounts though!

So this is the passenger side for reference.It bolts right into that little bracket. I guess maybe part of the stock rear seatbelts might have bolted into here at one point...
