Remove crashbar for kit?

[02on19s]

Whats goin on?
This is my first post @ TGC I'm getting ready to make-over my ride and I'm about to order the cyber kit...

I've heard from different people that they had to removed the crashbar to install the kit...
If whoever has this kit would reply to this thread I would really appreciate it!
Any info about the kit or the instillation would be tight :!:

Thanks

No you do not have to remove or modify the crashbar to install the Cyber Kit as it is a USDM kit, BUT there are kits like this one that are JDM and yes you do have to modify your crash bar. The only way you'd have to remove/modify the crash bar is if it is a JDM-made kit or bumper..

So no you do not have to remove the crash bar, unless it's molded off a JDM mold.. Hopefully this'll answer your question!

back the crash bar truck up guys...the ONLY usdm kit i know that's made is erac1ngs tigershark kit....which is not the Crux rip-off shogun/cyberwhatever kit.....so in order to have a crash bar for that kit....you have to have our usdm crash bar modified...or find a jdm crash bar ($$$$) unless maybe you happen to find a genuine USDM Crux kit

Looks like that just might be the way to go....I would hate to SMASH my front end just because I removed the crashbar!

I really appreciate all the help...

bring it on!
When I come out with the kit & my 19's...I'll be sure to post pics!

Thanks

Get a new crash bar made. I had the shop make a new one for me. They used the rails from the stock crash bar, then welded a couple pieces of metal bar onto them. The shop also re-used the rubber vibration dampers on the back of the stock bar. I don't know if that's what they actually are, but I suppose if they help with vibration, then great. They were on the back of the stock bar for a reason and the shop says it's for vibration.

i was wondering how much your shop charged you to install your front and rear bumper as well as fabricate you a new crashbar. i would do it myself but all i have is a dremel and i figure that would take me a whole day just to cut. also, did they have to cut the rear crash bar for the rear bumper to fit? thanks

I really can't give you a price since I had alot more done than what you are asking about for one set price. To make a new crash bar, you need to know how to weld as well as having other tools for cutting and such. The rear crash bar was left in place and did not have to be modified in any way. The only thing that had to be removed in the rear was the foam between the bumper cover and the crash bar.

oops! :oops: that last post was suppose to be a PM! i was wondering why i couldnt find the PM i "sent" in my outbox. and then im like, "who the idiot who dug up this old post?" it was me!!! :oops: yea... its midterm week. a little out of it :oops:

The guy that did my kit charged me 350 for the install..keep in mind this was a favor though, cause it was worked out between him and the body shop that my car was at, since they didnt want to get involved with the custom stuff, I can get you a quote if you want Qnz
now it was 350 to mount and wire my jdm headlights, and new crash bar, and install front, rear and side skirts
