Update on DC Sports strut bars

As of June 1st, AEM/DC Sports is seeking a price hike on the strut bars and several other parts. Supposedly pricing is increasing 44% or something ridiculous.....

So, please plan accordingly.........If you want to claim a bar, get it now, we have them on the shelf.........

You can expect most places to be selling the cobalt strut bar for around 120 + ship as of June 1st. Buy today and save!

Sorry, just wanted to state the same so everyone knows about this; we will be able to sell them at the current price for about 1 or 2 more days. Once what we do have in stock, is gone, we will be selling them for about $120 + Shipping.

From what I've read those may not be the best thing to use on a daily driver. I've e-mailed BMR before ( did again today ) about making a strut brace for the Cobalt, there not getting enough people contacting them about making one for the Cobalt though...if you're interested e-mail them and let them know you would like to see them produce one for the Cobalt......... www.bmrfabrication.com

Im going to wait my self. I know of a company that is working on a bar for us right now that should be out in about 3 months or so.
They said the price is going to be about 55 a bar. And from the pics I have seen so far the bar looks 100% beter then the DC bar.

That's cheap, why the long wait?
