Default c-pillar installed *pics*

got the c-piller in today and installed it. it was kind of a b*tch and took a while. I suggest if anyone is gena get this, install it with a friend so they can hold the bar up while tryin to bolt it to the c-pillar cuz the damn thing keept falling down and was a pain to bolt in. if u have a friend help, its a super super easy install. i drove around for a lil while with it in and i dunno if its just my head but i did seem to feel the difference. turns seem a little more solid and seemingly like less body roll. ill really test it out at the next autox event.

ya it feels more comfortable around turns. they have a bunch of them on ebay for all models, i got mine from there; BomzRacing is a good brand. i sat in the back cuz i was a lil worried about the passengers and their heads and if they lean back all the way they will hit their head but if they sit, i guess, kinda normal, then its no problem. it is tho, major WARNING, a saftey issue. reason being, if u got into an accident and had rear passengers, the impact could cause whiplash and therefore they would hit the back of their head on the bar and could seriously get injured. i rarely have rear seat passengers tho so its not to big of a concern for me.
