Default im torn ... scionfx or dc sports strut bar

does anyone have this strut bar?its like 82.00 shipped or i have found the dc sports c2 for 93.00 shipped. i like the looks of the scionfx because i have the scionfx cai and it is polished also but dc is a good name brand.http://ssuperstore.com/product_info....ad85d1d86d174d

you can get the DC Sports much cheaper than that. I got it for $75.00 shipped to Puerto Rico. Most websites sell that bar for $75.00 w/o shipping, so do some reseach before buying. By the way the DC Sports, is MUCH better looking and seems to be stronger, but thats left ot he eye of the beholder.

why not save the cash for another mod. the strut bar really isn't needed because of how close the strut towers are to the firewall. however the rear brace might be a worthwhile purchase.

I was talking about the one that goes under the car. the one for the rear strut tower does interfere with stereo stuff. any we have to have the stereo stuff. make our xB's loud!

i have the scionfx, and i def did notice a difference when i put mine on, live in the mountains,
and i have a rear strut bar, but the rear is pretty much show, does little for strut help
the rear braces are def worth getting though, keeps that body roll to a serious minimum
