I voted yay, but I have to clarify...I don't care for the bB logo.
And I prefer polished/chromed to brushed or sandblasted, with painted
or powder coated being a runner up.

being that you are in illinois (chicagoland area, i assume), you might want to contact bing (bing7685). he has the exact same strut bar, and can tell you his first-hand account on it.

i voted yay, because it looks pretty clean & functional, but for me i dont care what color it comes in or if its carbon fiber or polished, just as long as it works.

I vote nay.

Strut bars are basically rice. They do little to noticeably improve handling. A thicker rear anti sway bar would be much more logical and produce actual results.

That's true if you had to just pick one mod. IMO, every little bit helps...

OK, then I'd say go with a rear antisway, then springs, then wheels and tires, then some frame braces, THEN if you have money left over to burn, get the strut tower bar so you can paint it a pretty color and show it to your friends since that is all it's good for.
