I don't think my genyoowine Gert bar is 10 lbs. Maybe more like 3-4lbs.

I will probably get lambasted for this but I do have a "Pierre" bar. Its about 3-4 lbs. I was one of the first guys to buy it before the list virtually erupted. My wife has 20 years of experience in heavy machinery fabrication (yes, my wife..), and her opinion of the bar was "Welds are okay but not perfect, its definitely stainless, hollow bars, someone spent way too much time polishing". She could be wrong but the bar does not attract a magnet at all, even the thicker end plates. The bar I have is not chrome plated...given its sacrificial I thought it was okay for the use it will get (rub, rub). If I would not have bought this I would have fabed my own.

I've looked, but I can't find the FSB on Gert's site. Any instructions?

If you go under the suspension section for 993's, click on any package and I think you'll find a link to the fpb or front protection bar.

Hi all

I have the RS splitters and ride height as i have an RS. I am careful not to scrape the underneath by entering on an angle with full lock. It does not work all the time. FPB will probably not help. So i have gotten used to it. Splitters look a little used nowadays. But they are plastic and therefore sacrificial...?
