they used to have a flatter design bar (which I was fortunate enough to get before it was discontinued), now it's a more round one and doesn't fit the VE
Some have bent the VG, I think Czar bent the 4th gen one to fit
search for strut tower bar or FSTB and you should find more info about this; it's a very common topic

Take a towel and wrap it around the bar.Then run your tire up on the bar and give each side a little bend.Then put 1 washer under each bolt and pull your a/c hose back with a wire tie and it will be alright.Thanks Matt

heh, or just make custom brackets for it like me. then again, i dont know if you have access to a welder, etc. it was a ton of work, but the fit is really nice now. i didnt even have to bend the a/c hose out of the way.

Yes James FSTB looks really nice.Like it was made that way.And by the way James when you put those pedals on didnt you notice how much extra power it added.Man when I put my Razo pedals on it was the best mod I can chirp into 2nd with my auto.
