And a picture of your install? Tons of folks use these without issue. Gonna have to see a picture of it installed to be able to tell what's wrong.
Re: Installed strut bar, hood wont close
I dont have a picture of it installed, but it should be pretty straight forward of how it was installed, the 2 struts on each side unbolted and the strut bar placed over it and then bolted back into place, the bar runs along side the silicon part at the top of the engine bay.

looks like that lol i tried, only difference is that i have an aem intake. But yeah. I didnt take a picture of it when i installed it

The reservoir is because your car is a manual.
The bends are all the same on the neuspeed bar. you have to take a picture of your car, including the strut mounts, or we can't help you.
