Default ARK Fr. Strut Bar

whats up all

jw i recently won this item on ebay...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...TRK%3AMEWN%3AIT

It says it fits a 01-02. There is no 02 tiburon and the 00 is the same as the 01. Will this strut bar fit? I went to ARK's website and it states its for a 00-01. Is this just a typo or did i just waste 100 bucks?

I see this happen on eBay all the time. (02 Tiburon thing) nono2.gif

Ark is a good company?

LOL

You should search around here for them, they have a pretty bad rep allready for crappy business practices.

They started posting here about all the grand things they were doing for us, and none of it ever came around. They don't post here anymore.

Wonder why.

As for the bar, it looks pretty skimpy.

There was nothing wrong with ARK as a company, everyone just scared the company away with accusations without even trying the product... although the front strut bar is skimpy, they may have turned out decent performance products... their GK exhaust is rather nice.

Wrong again, there is PLENTY wrong with them as a company. Poor business practices, shouldn't be rewarded.

well sh*t man now im thinking i just f*cked myself.

I will get the pic for you, but what's wrong with the bottom of them , have there been problems before?

REDZ i actually thought it looked like it was manufactured pretty well from the pics, havent actually seen one in action or heard anything about them (ARKs strut bars)

Yea when i was posting this i was looking for the ARK section in the forums i thought they had their own sub-forum but i guess not... b/c they sucked and were removed or did they never have a sub-forum?

For being such a new company, it's really sh*tty that they have such a bad rep already i remember them posting here just starting up talkin all this macho sh*t. Well hopefully they're like sr (never thought id say that eyeroll.gif ) and not everyone of their customers get ripped.

I thought it was funny b/c when they first posted here they were saying "oh yea we really know the hyundai aftermarket very well dont buy from ppl on ebay who say 02 tib's we actually know our sh*t" then there they are on ebay saying 02 tib.


...or is redz just bashing cuz he wants the business?

Yeah... the ARK section got deleted I guess... all of the GK community likes their products so I wouldn't be too worried. Their rep's language was obviously not English and he got jumped on for it...

I'm still waiting for this to come about. THis is the reason he isn't coming around here. Too many promises with nothing to show except a skimpy looking bar.

I agree with you hamhead we did jump on them, but that is no reason to just never show up again.

As for the bar, I'm interested in seeing if it is a good product. I like the look of it but it does look kinda skinny. Other Bars that I've seen, MUSSA and such, are a lot thicker.
