PRICING
ok, the pricing is
1. mounts and bar powdercoated is $35
2. mounts and bar NON-powdercoated is $30
3. mounts themselves powdercoated are $20
4. mounts themselves NON-powdercoatd are $15
all those prices do not include shipping. shipping prices will vary with zip code, but you can probably guess around $10 shipping give or take.
I can vouch for the craftsmanship on these. I got 2 custom powdercoated in red and white to match my cars, and they look fantastic.
Ever thought about doing the front ones? You can be like.....a first gen W-body store!

thanks for the kind words....when u gonna get those on and feel the difference?
I kinda don't want to wast the time to make a front STB cause the F-bar works already.....i dunno i might make one if there is enough interest....
if i had a 3.4, i'd make on to fit over the plenum....
Apparently you didn't see my trouble with the EPA and what the emissions testing place did to the TSTE. And I didn't take the TGP in due to fearing the same fate, so now THOSE plates are suspended, too. Can't even take them anywhere to get worked on. :cry:
Plenty in stock.
Still got them.
I'm interested and want to buy a set but it might be a couple months. I almost bought a set from you like 6 months ago, maybe more than that, but I've had some other things come up that were a little more important. In a month or two I should be financially stable enough to order one of these. I'll let you know... I really enjoy my f-bar so I can't wait to get one of these!

right here....what did you need?
Quick question...kinda a newbie and kinda alseep yet lol...you said the F-Bar works for a front STB...enlighten me, what's the F-Bar?
its a stock STB you can add to the TGP... came on the Buick Regal if i'm not mistaken... Basically you drill 2 holes in the front strut tower covers on each side and bolt it down. You can buy it from gmpartsdirect.gom in a single bar or 2 bars together. Someone will have the part no on hand im sure. I would post a picture but i just realized i don't have any pics of my engine from the past 2 years!!! :icon_eek: :icon_eek:
edit... may have been wrong about the car it came on but part number from gmpartsdirect for one bar is: 12456148 for 2 is: 12498648
The F-bar is the one w/ the PONTIAC on it.

i dunno if the brackets would work on my car....the STB "barely" rubs on the hood....so the brackets would raze it a bit which wouldn't help.
What year Buicks and models for that bar? Also for a rear bar $35 but what about shipping to 53511?
I think AWeb sold out all of his Rear strut tower braces, and I think he said that was all he's making.
Send Adam a message on the W-body board to ask about his rear bars. He probably doesn't visit this board but every so often, so you'll get a quicker response over there.
I see thanks guys!
hot damn, Adam's already been making these for 3 years? Shit man
If there is bid enough interest....I'll make just the mounts.
the buyer will then be in charge of buying a bar to mount to the mounts. <---not hard to do and I'll give full instructions.
1 x 1 HSS is easy to come by at my work. LMK how much for a set.
Since I am in the progress of freshening up the TGP I would also like to get in on this. Let us know!
Well then.....Matt, I think I'll put up a group buy on wbody.
