Ok, I have the car up on the crossmember, as its been suggested, for a few days now but there has been no settling of the fenders. The bar is no closer to fitting than before. I was wondering if there was something i missed, is there anything that should be loosened for example.
Thanks

Yeah take the shock tower braces off if they are still on, that's what I did.

Take em off and you'll see a difference. Should drop and the bar will fit.
