i was reading a topic on camry strut bars , i bought one off eBay because it was cheaper , it has no brand name . but i have to say , its a **** trade , not worth the buck . when the engine rotates , it scrapes part of the bar , therefore forcing me to put a rag over the scraped part and i just realized that the engine has pushed my bar forward , so its like on a declining 45 degree angle ( no idea how to explain that, see pics), i don't know how to comment on the stiffness part, sorry guys. so yeah , i just thought that i let you all know. :D

Have you tried turning the strut top plates around? The Gen 3 Whiteline ones can be fitted both ways, and yours looks a little odd.

Pretty sure you have fitted it facing the wrong way, like trent said. It looks funny atm.

when i fitted that bar in the first time like in the pics , i drove it around and engine was scraping the bar when it was on drive or reverse. so then i swapped the plates around , then when the car was on drive , the engine scraped the bottom bit and when on reverse the engine would scrape the from bit of the bar on the pics. can you guys elaborate on the odd part , i dont quite understand that part.
