Following up

As the winner of the contest I believe I owe J&M some closure on this thread.
J&M was kind enough to make the prize set in the red powder coat I wanted. The box arrived this week and here are some pics of the unboxing. They were packed very well and arrived with no damage. Included are new bolts for the front of the bars, some stickers, and instructions to contact J&M in case of any problems were also included. I didn't realize the bars have to be different lengths but J&M labels the unit for the passenger side to prevent confusion.

Finally the finish on these units is excellent and they are well made with the tube being completely sealed to prevent rust and dirt collection.

Next post. the install and impressions.

[MENTION=25943]robertwsimpson[/MENTION] funny you mention that....

Went out today and got to work. Overall it is a very easy installation. A 15MM socket and a 8MM allen were needed. Of course a jack and jack stands were used to get the car up and hold it while I scurried around underneath. Four 15MM bolts on each side can be removed quickly and then reusing the rear bolts I held the rail with one hand and started the two rear bolts with the other. Not really that hard. After the two rears were started I moved to the front and used the allen to put the supplied allen head bolts in place. Since those two bolt holes are pretty exact I tightened them before returning to the rear bolts to get them tight. About 10 minutes per side and then I pulled the stands out. I went for a ride.

Not sure if I can tell a difference in stiffness yet. But I can say you can see the rails from the side of the car and they are substantial.
