20B N/A Wide Body FC3S
This is bull **** though:
When they ship to a APO/FPO address they only pay shipping to California, from there the military ships it to us overseas for free, I think they could actually get in a lot of trouble for charging us international shipping if sombody pushed it..

Excluding our Body Kit and Spoiler auctions,(Due to size limitations,we can only ship larger items within the Continental U.S.)International shipping rates include AK, HI, GU, VI, PR, PO Boxes, Military address/base,APO/FPO and Canada. Only "International Money Orders" or American Express credit cards are accepted payment methods from non-U.S. bidders.

Hey all,
The bar came today, I have yet to install it but I will take some pics. The quality is decent, obviously nothing special but for the price as long as it works i'll be 100% satisfied. Basically the end links are painted flat black and the bar itself is polished aluminum, nothing fancy, which I actually prefer. There are however some flaws and knicks in the end links, the finish isn't that smooth. The bar itself is much nicer, but again there are some tiny flaws in the finish. More to come...

Update: Ok got the bar installed finally and took some pics. As far as how well it works, I can't honestly say I've noticed a big difference, but I've yet to get a chance to go up GMR and do my "test" (the road is closed right now). If anything the steering feels slightly more "connected", like if I swerve back and forth then the car will want to change direction faster. However this could all be my imagination, who knows. The fitment was only so-so imo. It doesn't rub anything (I'd say there is 1/4" clearance at the y-pipe which is the closest point) but the holes seem to be slightly misaligned so the bar doesn't go on perfectly straight. The design allows for misalignment but you'd think they would just make it as straight as possible. You can see what I mean in the pics. Despite this I still think its a killer deal, $30 shipped.
