Bump. I too have the same setup. Have you tried contacting Dave at DDM Works? I sent him an email, but haven't heard back yet.

Other than cosmetics, what do you intend this part to do for you? The chassis is pretty stiff, not like the 78 Rabbit where these bars were developed. I doubt it would have much noticeable effect unless you were building a full track car with solid bushings. Stiffness is one of the things we gain with the extra 800 Lbs in the car over our older ones. Yes, I know heresy! Sorry, I am an engineer.

I think this may be the prevalent opinion on NAM.
