Never knew those existed. I'd rather get the front tower brace bar from DC and the rear sway bar from Eibach. Then maybe I'd conisder getting a floor brace.

Interesting... I was looking at this a while back...

Does the car feel any more rigid?

I'm currently running bc sport coilovers, front strut bar, rear sway bar. Just curious if this is a buy or not...
