Default Hotchkis vs. DC Sports

Okay so here's the deal...
I know neither will make a tremendous difference, but I want a strut tower bar.
There was a Hotchkis on ebay.
And then there was a seller on craigslist selling a DC Sports and a set of OTG spacers.

I won the ebay auction ($80 shipped) and about 20 minutes after, the craigslist guy tells me he wants $80 for both the spacers and the bar.

The way I look at it is, if I get the DC, I get free spacers. But then I'd have to resell the Hotchkis
(I have 100% feedback and I don't want to ruin that)

After my long winded explanation...
What's the preference? DC Sports? Hotchkis?



If it's DC; anyone want to buy a Hotchkis??

Default I have the DC!!!

I don't know what you talking about, the DC is a very stiff bar and made a huge differance to my Xb. My friend has the silver Hotchkis bar, Its not as stiff , but its color matches my underhood color scheme better than the DC. So I would say the Hoitchkis is the Beauty and the DC is the Beast.

I like the Hotchkis...but then I also like the DC. Depends on how you want your bay to look. The Hotchkis is a good contrast to your engine cover (I think you panited it) and the DC will blend. Both are sweet deals!

i installed my dc bar at the same time as my springs so i wouldnt be sure how big of a difference it made... but as far as looks go, the dc looks friggin sweet. i would get the dc with the spacers (totally _____in deal). you will definitely find a buyer for the hotchkis, either here or clubxb etc
