Well.. hope you like them..
I had problems installing the bar since it was too long as you can easily see from the pics.
Infact I had to force a bolt to enter. Apart this, the car is more "solid", I have reduced bumps for holes in the street but the steering is a little bit harder, Maybe just my impression.
It goes very well while cornering.
Overall a good choice.
If you can.. buy it and enjoy.

Has anyone else tried this mod on the amg model recently? Has anyone else ordered from wiechers-sport recently? Thinking about ordering. Thanks all.

I just test drove a slk55 without the strut bar and the steering was world's different, less sharp and less feel. I still love this mod.

Mr. Imducati, did the bar clear the brake reservoir and behind the airbox ok? Thanks.
