I want to get a front strut tower bar. I heard that people have had problems with it fitting. Which one should I get for a guaranteed great fit?

I have the Matrix bar, perfect fit.

Does yours cover the oil cap?

I hav ethe Freedom Design Strut Tower Brace. Fits just fine, but it does cover the oil fill cap, so you have to loosed one end to change/fill oil. I don't know if there are ones out there that you don't block the oil fill cap or not.

If you get an aftermarket oil cap, you can get any kind of tower bar and still remove the cap without any problems. I have an OBX pollished oil cap(any one that fits a Honda will fit ours) and a Tenzo tower bar and it comes off with no problems :-)

Thanks John,
I didn't know that Honda oil caps would fit. I'll have to do a little shopping now.

front stb and the bend in the bar is made for a NT eclipse. It sits slightly higher over the oil cap and this allows me to change the oil(remove the cap)without disconnecting the stb. I have put a topspeed oil cap(honda)on and now I have even more clearance. The rear bars are pretty much the same. Check out the announcement section for a blowout deal on carbon front & rear stb SET for $80 plus shipping. This is not a sales pitch, but I thought you might want to know.....since you were shopping.
