    setina push bar installed!!

    Hey guys, i finally got my push bar installed.

    Its the setina pb400 with the heavy duty kit.
    www.setina.com cost was $180

    I was going to get the quick install kit, but i found 2 things i didnt like about it.

    1) If the push bar is used, or your in a small accident, it can "crack the fiberglass frame" of the car, possibly even puncturing your radiator!!

    2) the brackets that hold it on rest on the top of the bumper, and over time it can/will wear the paint away.

    The brackets i got bolt right to the metal bumper. For the lower brackets, there are "struts" that bolt to the radiator bolts for extra stability (see pic) and the top ones aslo bolt right to the metal bumper.

    I did have to cut to small notches for the upper bracket in the bumber, but it is hardely noticable. And these brackets can take much more abuse. If you lift on the bar, the front end of the car rises, its very solid.

    The looks are awesome, see for your self...
