The Steeda one is pretty nice! Much sturdier than the stock one.
Thanks for the review and pic. You pushed me over the edge. The sale price and free shipping never hurt, either.

My Steeda bar is not straight. A bit disappointing. I emailed them and was told to just bolt it down..... wtf. Im pretty upset that they won't own up to their manufacturing defect. Angles are wrong. Front and back Bars are not even (the bend dont line up) causing extra twist....

That doesn't even look like the bends are in the right spots... maybe for a different vehicle? Do the mounting holes line up? I mean, maybe they made a revision to their design but why? Look at other pics of the Steeda. Yours is not the same.

Edit: looking at your other pic in another thread, it does seem like the bolts line up. I have to believe they changed the design, maybe for more clearance from the engine? Maybe for ease of manufacture?

I agree. The bends are further out, and not even. But they are letting me return it. So that is good. After i get credited back i will order the afe one. Does anyone else make one? Steeda and afe is what I've found.

FenFab has a couple of options as well. They’re all just for looks so pick the one you like the best and go with it.
