Re: HSR with Strut braces
I was unable to find the pic where a member used a BMR 2pt and made a spacers to fit under the mount at the strut towers. Looked good, I am planning on trying this but with a 3pt BMR stb.

Re: HSR with Strut braces
i have been pondering how do make one work with my hsr too. but from what i hear with the guys running the stock hood, its already a super tight fit,,so how would a strut brace fit too??? i have the ss hood, so i may get lucky, but idk about the rest of you who are using stock hoods.

Re: HSR with Strut braces
A 3 point brace that tied the 2 strut towers to the center of the cowl would avoid the hood clearance issue. Don't know why someone hasn't fabbed one yet. I bet they would sell a bunch.
