Customenterprise.com Strut bar; Any good?

Anyone purchased a front strut bar from customenterprise aka custommaxima.com? Are these any good as far as quality and performance? Or should I just buy one from Stillen.com? Any suggestions will be great.

They're all about the same other than the pricetag and the appearance.

Thanks bro. I like the stillen but with the $100 price difference it better be well worth it. I am almost certain that I will go with custommaxima.org! Any other strut bars out there for our ride?

I had an ebay one for $30 and it would hit the throttle body and vibrate the car when I reverse. So I sold that one. Ever since then I never bothered but I want another one. Want the stillen but keeping my options open.

I've got the A33 Heavy Duty Alumninum Strut Bar from Paradox systems. It looks da** good. And works as good as it looks.

Never mind. I keyword it and found it. Do you have a picture of it on your ride? They look a little busy with the cap/cover over the strut. It's definitely different. For $120 though; I probably still go with stillen for that price range. Thanks for the information

Get the Otto racing bar. Looks like the stillen if that is what you like. And it is cheaper then Custommaxima.

I actually just finished putting the CE one on, it looks real good, i got polished red cause if you guys didnt notice the red and blue are on sale for 49 and regular polished is 69, it ended up being $57 and change shipped. Fitment is fine, i'm not sure i did it right though but from the small test drive i took it feels firmer up front. The silver nuts on the actual bar are supposed to be as tight as possible right?
