Re: Front Strut Bars
After doing a search on the forum, some of the folks here have said that the eBay person/company "Directcarparts" sells a front strut tower bar that is just like the Courtesy one. Those who have that one say that installation is simple and fit is good. So I won a bid on one last week. Including tax and shipping, it only came out to $45. Not bad.

I have the courtesy FSTB as well and I didn't feel any handling gains until I changed the factory tires and lowered my car with springs. I don't think the FSTB alone will a sharper handling car it will improve the handling a little but not as much as a combination of multiple suspension mods.

If price is not an issue, then go with the Stillen. It seems to have the least fitment issues, and the namebrand. I think the next best would be the Courtesy bar, which is what I got. It seems to have very few fitment issues, looks great, and is a solid product.
