looks good man, i never seen one installed on a S14 well to be honest i never looked it up. i always wondered why the parts that mount to the tower were so long and now i see why, the bar is inside the cabin. thats pretty sweet, mine on my S13 coupe is in the trunk so nobody knows its there.

How much did you pick it up for? I just installed my front and rear last week. I have a Megan rear and dc sports front. I wish I'd have gotten both Megan. It looks way nicer and costs half as much.

Is that what the stock rear deck cover looks like?! Or did you put bigger speaker grilles on? Looks clean, I just made my own rear deck cover and cut outs for the rear strut bars.

my rear deck is the same.

i opted for teh greddy rear stb mainly because i didn't want to cut up my deck, or see the thing every time i looked in my rear view mirror. the bar sits right above the shelf in the trunk behind the seats so it doesn't really get in the way of anything. i like it.

mine sits pretty low behind the seat so it doesnt bother me either glare nor distraction.

yours does sit pretty low. i'm just super anal about things being readily noticeable. i'm trying to keep my car as visually subtle as possible. except for the exhaust, that's pretty in your face lol.

your telling me i just got 2 tickets in a row so i am thinking of powder coating the bar or flatblacking it as i got the tickets for tint and muffler so i took off the tints as the best way to hide somethings are in plain sight but the barrel i have a friend with a shop so thats a plus for the fradulent reciepts

i have the silencer somewhere, i just don't run it. if i ever have to go through inspection, i'll just put it in with some steel wool and i should be good. my tints are also illegal. i just avoid the towns that i know i'll get s*** from the po-po.
