neuspeed strut bar

Just a quick easy question, I'm going to get the neuspeed upper strut/tie bar. I went to nopi last year as always and I saw some 7thgens that had the upper tie bar and the bar was hitting the small brake reservoir so some just had it hanging there others had zip tied it somewhere. I dont want to have to move this, so I was wondering does the neuspeed bar hit this?

The bars I saw that were causing this problem I cant remember which ones they were.

here is a pic of what im talking about, linky linky
How can you fix this?

Just bend the resevoir bracket towards the front of the car a bit and it will be out of the way.

Even if you cannot bend it, moving it like instructions say is pretty easy.

Even if it hit the resevoir i doubt that it would actually cause a problem. it barely looks like its hitting it to me. Also, that bar looks a little halfassed to me, unless im just not seeing it correctly. Does it have a plate to where it mounts to the struts or is it just bars?

No problem, but you have to move the reservoir about a quarter of an inch for the bar to be seated correctly. The bar mounts directly to the struts.
