Aftermarket T-Top center bar reviews?
Hi folks,
as far as I can tell, there seem to be two aftermarket center bars for our t-tops:
- Classic Industries, which seems to be OER merch and has exclusively bad reviews on the OER website
- Hawk's Motorsports, with only full score reviews on their website
- Firebird Central, no info at all on this one
I have found some posts on here about the CI/OER ones with pictures describing the situation, but nothing about Hawk's or Firebird Central.
Can anyone please help me out with their experiences they had with those items?
Thanks!
Update:
Got me a Hawk's stainless steel bar. Looks good, feels good, fits perfectly and you can adjust the upper part forwards/backwards, so you get the same spaces to the body.
That top part does have a slightly orange peely feel to it and it has a flat profile, whereas the original's profile is a little... convex in that area and has a smooth paint finish.
In any case money well spent.
