cusco strut bar help?

Just wondering if someone could post a picture of their cusco strut bar in the engine bay. For some reason I think I got the wrong bar, despite it saying fd3s on the package, sticker on the bar, and on the japanese instructions.

It won't line up in the front, and I even tried the rear and it does not fit either???

Thanks, I guess the factory screwed up and put a different bar in the package.

Did you order the oval or the d-shape?

What specific bar do you have?

Refer to this link to identify.

Either way, it should still install relatively easily.
Has your FD been in an accident?

Where does it not line up? How far is it?

It's the wrong bar, definatly different from the pictures. It goes straight across, no bends, nothing. The car is not the problem, because my r1 strut bar lines up perfectly. Looks I will stay with the r1 bar instead.
