That will be a rear strutt brace then, NOT an anti roll bar. It will have no effect on the body roll of the vehicle.

Once iv done the top bar im goin to do the same underneath and brace the whole thing into a box if u get what i mean the top bar will make it a...................

n

Then by makin the same bar design as top it will be braced fully into a box, all for 8quid and my handy ali welding skills! il take pics also all polished ali in rear then red for underneath to match the omp ones at front!




Surly it will do summin guys!

It'll tighten the car up I'm guessing. Body roll is prevented by the ARB on the rear, and the Ibiza 3 ARB is a good upgrade for polos.
