Wonderbar... TDS or Spohn
I'd like to add a wonderbar to my 91 GTA. The only 2 sources for this prodcut I found were TDS and Spohn. Which manufacturer/distributor should I go with? and second... if I go with Spohn, should I get the adjustable wonderbar or the unadjustable version?
Thanks!
Bill
P.S. My car only has 50K on it. Should I expect any subframe damage? How can I check for any damage due to lack of wonderbar?

Go with TDS. Spohn's design can cause issues with the fans and also some swaybars. TDS can't be faulted for service either.
If you want more details, do a search as this has been discussed to death.

Long before TDS or Spohn manufactured the Wonderbar or SFC's, there was Globel West (an often overlooked company whose products are first rate. I'm running both their Wonderbar and SFC's). I've dealt with all three companies and all have fine products.

By the way, I installed a 36mm front sway bar and dual electric fans without any problems whatsoever.

Just ordered a TDS wonder not sure about the product yet but the service was awesome. I ordered it and it went out UPS the same day!! Now that is service.
