Front Bar Not Fitting

[zerotohundred]

hey guys,

i bought a front bar off a member on the forums a couple of months ago, it looks identical to this :

i finally found the time to get it painted and everything. and now that its all done, i cant seem to fit it onto the car as the chasis is in the way of the things where the fog lights go.

wat would be the best way to get it to fit without ruining the bar?

thnx in advance

is it just the reo bar that is in the way? you can either trim the front bar (i presume its a fibreglass copy?) or trim the reo bar depending on how much it hits

are you trying to fit a stock r33 gtr bar onto a GTST?

Pretty sure it depends on whether it's a series one or two, think there is a slight difference in the shape of the reo and also mounting points.

same as above either trim the bar to allow for reo or trim the reo to fit the bar...shudnt hav a problem if its gtr onto gtr but if its onto a gtst u may

REMOVE THE REO ALL TOGETHER, there are two 14mm bolts either side.

If it doesnt fit stil, it will be because it is a little too wide ie genuine gtr size

yes, lets remove the structural reinforcement from the front of the car, what a fantastic idea.

agreed not a good idea to get rid of safety features just to look good
