Your new bar will arrive with no metal attached to it at all. Meaning it will not fit without the metal braces!

Along the top of your original bar there is a long piece of metal (it might extend the whole way around) this will be needed on your new bar.

You can see the piece I'm talking about, its the part that runs under the headlight) there are maybe 7 bolts holding it to the bar. (NOT the green highlighted bits, they are for something else)

There are also to brackets on the outer most edges (near the wheel arches) that will also be needed.

The first pic shows where I'm talking about, the second has a shot of the actual piece I'm referring too.

Basically anything that you had to remove a bolt from to get your standard bar off will be needed for your new bar, and everything that the bolts screw into will be needed to transfer from your standard bar to the ralliart bar.

Everything is a direct fit.

Other than that i think it should be fine, might want to remove your headlight brackets, as these wont fit the ralliart bar, but pretty sure that covers everything.
