"Overthought"? Maybe, I tend to do a lot of over-engineering. In my past I worked at a fabrication shop building everything from headers, to rollbars, to entire tube chassis, so yeah, I will build something to perform beyond it's means. Besides, it's for a Porsche, has anyone in Germany ever told Porsche "you're overthinking..." ;-)

I looked at the Pedro bar, and quickly thought, "for the price I can do better". The Pedro bar is fine if you just want to stiffen the stress points, but I wanted something better with some minute adjust-ability. What I saw first with the Pedro bar was there was no room for error between the attaching points, I read that some users had problems lining up the bolt holes...
