Evo Carbon Fiber Rear Strut Bar

Hi guys,

I installed an Evo CF Rear strut bar this weekend along with some other parts. Fits fine but the carpet won't go over it. Has anyone ever installed one in a C2 before? Will I just have to bust out the "cutting tool" and take out parts of the carpet?

even if you do cut it, will it clear over the carpet? or your thinking gutting some of the sound deadeners? If its the deadeners, go for it!!

I was thinking of cutting a channel for it in the foam sound insulation...

i have the BreyKrass one that is part of my harness bar, and thats what i did, was cut 2 slits in the carpet/foam with a utility knife, but it's a tighy fit, but looks pretty clean.
