    yep make your own mounts with flat pieces of metal off the chassis rail for the front. and drill holes in the corner and bolt it into the guard. if it still doesnt fit properly. put some tape on the car and fibreglass up to it

    Don't use cable ties lol.. Drill a hole up into the guard lip and put a bolt through there with some washers.

    yeah till you hit the ripple strip and smash the hell outa your bar and have to buy a new one. Then you will zip tie that one and it will pop off and remain relativley unscathed for track days to come.
