| and maybe stretch them out too not worth the trouble IMO. STS bars work well and probably cost less. and they actually are known to fit our G-bodys. _________________ 1996 with 254k miles, L32 4" FWI -> ported N* -> Ported Gen V w/3.0" Pulley, Stage 3 Phenolic I/C, ZZP FMHE, 1.84 RR, Headers and 3" pipe to mufflers, F-body brakes, and lowered on Eibachs. -RIP AMG C400 White on black.

| IIRC there's a ridge on the inside of the front strut towers that the flat plates on the BMR bar won't clear. Also, we don't have a 3 bolt setup in back, it's two bolts, so that won't work either. | |

| The G body is wider than the W body, but those do look like nice ones. You could always go to grainger and get longer eye-bolts if it weren't long enough... If they clear those flat plates Jack is talking about... | |

| You'd have to have custom brackets front and rear, why bother? More work than with the STS STB. | |
