Less is more on crash bars, particularly the rear ones.


This! But I feel it's just general lack of knowledge that get people into buying hype items like the bash bars and tube fronts. I personally owned a front bash bar to " protect " but realized pretty much what you mentioned and got rid of it for that reason, along with it not being able to run oem bumpers because it was oversized for aftermarket aero. .

Race use stuff usually never is practical for a street car anyways. Simple is better, most of the time.
