looks like you installed it backwards....swap the mounts to the other sides.

I'd agree... Play with it more. Worst-case, modify it to fit.

Ditto.

Oh and to the OP, could you please stop making your thread titles so obnoxious? It's getting really annoying.

If you want a quality inexpensive bar find the one from TCSportline, it used to be here http://www.driftingperformance.com/p...66df18cd0de45e
They are out of business it seems but you can maybe find one on ebay or something......

Yeah man, you gotta fix your keyboard. Either you're missing a ton of letters, or you have way too many.

Save the texting for your phone and WD-40 the stuck keys, man.
