Thank you, firemangeorged wiill check it out.,

Here are the google results, there's one on eBay, wholesalegmpartsonline seems to have them. You were looking at the cobalt part, may fit, may not. https://www.google.com/search?q=2584...w=1192&bih=617

A disclaimer here because I'm not 100% about the below thoughts.
I would think you could put the more common 25mm bar on a SS. The physical shape should be the same with both size bars. It would just need the correct 25mm bushings and brackets.
I doubt you would even notice any handling differences on a daily driver SS with the 25mm bar.

Just my thoughts. Trying to help out the OP on getting a replacement.

The bar from the LS/LT HHRs may have a different shape. I remember reading some speculation that there was a bend to go around the turbo.

The status of your order has changed and we wanted to keep you up to date.

Discontinued/Unavailable Part:

Our apologies but according to our database, the part or parts you ordered are discontinued or have no inventory at this time. We have now canceled your order and voided out your payment.

Refund/Void: RELEASE OF FUNDS

If you placed or attempted to place an order with us, what you are seeing on your bank account is an authorization or a "pending charge". This is a common bank practice handling credit card transactions to ensure sufficient funds and account authenticity.

If your order was declined, denied, or canceled this authorization will clear on its own (depending on your bank, typically between 1-10 business days). If your order is successful, the authorization will turn into a charge once your order ships.

If your pending hold has not released after 10 days, your bank or lender can request a letter of release of funds. Send to: cedelen@bobhook.net

Thank you

Most performance sites I seem to find wont let you choose sub-model... Then I get told well we supply all the mounting hardware you will need to mount it cause ours is 'thiner-thicker' IF thats the case could I not just buy ab LS bar and mounting hardware?>
