You need to bend it back into position,
then build a strut tower brace, go look
at some ricer racer stuff, you'll get the
idea, this should help keep the strut
towers in place

hey a sidekick sport has a strut tower stock. ITs a little wider then normal sidekick but you could narrow it and make it fit.

i was planning on building a strut tower brace i was just wondering if anyone had tried to truss the tower and what success that gave them. also has anyone else had this problem.
