Stupid, lying porn movies. Except for one tiny pair of weeny details that seems to have been forgotten in all the hairy-handed chest thumping, unless your an absolute freak, nobody much pays attention to man boobs...or the equivelant sticking up under the hood of my Focus for that matter. Ick! Not only is the sight of a well-endowed strut tower nipples only slightly more disturbing than an all-Amish bachelor party, its certainly no placebo for the real deal...unless of course you happen to get an awesome deal on a new strut bar from Massive and want to proudly display your new strut tower support. The Massive strut bar, the only bra I'll wear on my car.

Yes, it is awesome. And it matches my powdercoated valve cover amazingly well. Major props to 02AllBlackSVT for helping to get it on.

 

[WUGcatsvt]

that looks really good

 

[SkyPilot]

yeah looks great, how does the bra feel???? [giggle]

 

[shepski]

Do you actually notice a difference? I mean it LOOKS cool and all, but I saw a bunch of threads here wherein people said they're a joke on a Focus because the firewall is so close to the strut towers anyway... (not trying to piss on your parade, I was thinking of getting one myself - hence the reading of relevant threads)

PS. I love your headlights - what kind are they? Didja get 'em on ebay?[hihi]

 

[warneej]

it helped a lot in mine, btw the tower caps look good, you get them in that bulk sale on the jet? i was thinking about springing for them too.

btw i always wondered, is your name pronounced fuh-kade? or fuh-sod (facade with a french accent under the c like the front of a building)

Remind me later to beat you with something large and blunt, like say, the bumper of a 1972 Ford Pinto. []

Yep, got those tower caps on the bulk sale on Focaljet and they're definitely worth it. As far as my name, its just like Facade but with a 'ph' at the front; füh-sôd. [8D]

 

[Joshuasvt]

Are those ST's painted grey/silver?

Actually no, I had the flash on and it was getting dark.

 

[warneej]

haha i knew it! good play on spelling

 

[shepski]

Sodja notice a difference (other than cosmetic, of course) from that brace, or not?

 

[Waffles ZX3 Kona Sport]

Dang, that looks good.

 

[Roland07]

Shepski, I got the Massive bar for Duratecs and noticed a difference when I installed it. Then while installing my SVT suspension, my dad insisted on "helping" and over-torqued one of the strut tower nuts while we were swapping front shocks. So one nut is spinning freely on the stud while I can't put my stress bar back on. I noticed a difference with it off too, in spite of the different suspension.

It isn't world-changing by any means. But it does add a more positive feel to your steering response.

 

[02AllBlackSVT]

It doesnt make a big difference, but good to lean on while working on the car. Hahah, and those are True ST170 headlights they are grey stock and he got them for his Machs straight from Germany.

A bit, yes. The weird thing is there is a bit of a clunk (small one) when I start the car up now. I suspect its the air box moving when the engine turns over. Not a bad thing, just a....wha?! It looks good and I'm pretty sure I can feel some difference.

...then again it could just the butt-dyno. [8D]

Actually, he got those for his Machs straight from ME (but, yes, I got them straight from Germany)...

 

[tukaniSVT]

Good looking car ... I like the look of tower ...

Flows really well with your valve cover ... as you put it ...

BUT I suggest you clean up the rest of the bay now ... makes everything else look even dirtier.
