Ooooh, shiny. I would ask what purpose they serve, but then it would seem as though I don't know
what I'm talking about.

I'm repainting the parts with rust on them near the center bolting up to the engine within the next two weeks or so. I need to figure out how they come out.

They keep the front end of the car a little more ridgid so the body doesn't flex so much under hard cornering. It improves handling, basically

That's your opinion.

And you know what? I think you should go to http://www.naioa.com , and tell anyone who modifies their impala, including my friend on therE JP42227 that his car with over $7 grand under the hood, was a waste.

Suck a cock

I like them. Just out of curiosity, what purpose do those bars serve in cars? My Cheyenne and Tempo do not have them.
