Key Features:

Designed to provide superior chassis support and improved handling characteristics, the HPS Performance Front Strut Bar offers the following features:

• Connects the front strut towers to evenly distribute suspension forces across the chassis, reducing flex under load.
• Improves steering feedback and precision, enhancing driver confidence during cornering.
• Constructed from a 1/2" solid billet aluminum bar featuring CNC-milled design elements to minimize weight without sacrificing strength.
• Heavy-duty, vehicle-specific 10-gauge thick steel mounting brackets with a polished powder coat finish for excellent durability and corrosion resistance.
• Engineered using 3D scanning and CAD software to ensure perfect fitment and seamless integration with factory mounting points.
• Polished finish adds a clean, high-quality appearance to the engine bay.
• Compatible with stock suspension setups; however, it does not fit with KW V3/V4 Clubsport or ST XTA/XTA Plus 3 suspension kits.

Construction & Design:

The core of the strut bar is crafted from a 1/2" thick billet aluminum bar, CNC-machined to reduce unnecessary weight while maintaining exceptional strength and rigidity. This approach ensures the bar effectively resists chassis flex without adding excessive mass. The mounting brackets are fabricated from 10-gauge thick steel and finished with a polished powder coat to provide long-lasting corrosion protection and a premium look.

Precision engineering using 3D scanning and CAD modeling guarantees a perfect fit for the specified vehicle models, allowing for straightforward installation without modifications.

Installation & Fitment:

This front strut bar is designed for a bolt-on installation using existing factory mounting points, requiring no cutting, drilling, or special tuning.
