I guess this mean that putting the bar on a 1992 ES300 wouldn't be a great idea "dough!" i was planning on getting one but since so many people have so many issuse with clearance... its all down. ?

yeah, once you install it, youll notice that the hood doesnt even shut nicely, and when opening it, it pops up as the strut bar is in the way. now my cars hood has some bulge on it. really awesome.
