Mitsubishi Evo 8/9 "Upgrade" Front Strut Bar

I have the Mitsubishi front Aluminum style strut brace bar. This thing is just as stiff if not stiffer, yet way lighter than the stock steel one. Looks a whole lot better too in brushed aluminum with red anodized accents.

Buy one from Mitsubishi and its $422. I'll let mine go for $300 plus the cost of your choice of shipping. This is a drop of $50 since I last posted it a year ago and a drop of $25 from my last offer.

(Edit: Price is now only $150!!)

Heck, it only has 3000 miles on it (as is it could wear out).

Location is in Vacaville, CA. I can deliver in Solano County, CA.

If you are anywhere in the Bay Area or Sacramento, this won't be a long drive for you.

I am an Air Force Captain and I'm not here to rip anybody off. Its just that I sold my Evo two years ago and I still have this stuff taking up space in my garage.

I don't know. That's exactly what the strut bar looks like, but that is not a pic of my engine bay.

I have not weighed this item, and I don't own a scale, but having uninstalled this one and replacing it with the stock steel one (prior to selling my Evo), I would say that its easily half the weight. This thing is super light.

Ok, I finally got around to weighing this thing at it appears to be about 3.5 pounds. Pretty darn light if I do say so myself.

Some have asked for some updated pics, so here they are.

I can send better pics to anyone who needs them, but only over email. I hate having to resize these things so much because 100kb pics are pretty weak.

Just let me know!
