Cool mugen upper strut tower bar

i got a mugen strut bar and went to install it, i figured since its mugen it would fit perfectly. i went to drill the holes where there are spots to drill. doesn't fit. so im wondering if i drilled in the wrong spot, and what kind of bolts i should use to bolt the thing down. also, would drilling two more holes fuck up how my car handles?


....help!?

drilling 2 more won't fuck it up, just don't go drilling like 10 of them on one side. you should use some self-drilling screws... made for metal. That would ensure that you don't mess up the size and make the hole too big. I've drilled shit on my firewall, struts, and misc. metal on the car all the time... it's doesn't do a thing. unless you drill a ridiculously amount, then you are making awkward stress points in the metal over time and can warp the metal, cause excessive rust, or even make the metal break under stress. that would highly unlikely to happen though.

You had to drill holes to put the strut bar on, it didnt use the existing from shock tower bolts?
