Fitting VIP front strut bar

Are there any strut bars that will fit over the Cravenspeed Strut Tower Defender and clear the hood?

Edit: Gave them a call, the shape of the hood doesn't allow it to fit. Looking at the VIP Custom Parts Page, they have the strut tower protectors for the non-s, but it says that the bar won't fit the non-S cooper. Has anyone gotten it to fit, and why is it that it is not compatible?

Thanks

If you go with the Racing Dynamics Front Strut Brace, it goes under the Craven Strut Tower Defenders without a problem.
