Best value FSTB and pics?
I'm looking at the Budget FSTB, which is $50 Canadian, but there are no photos of it on their site. Anyone have photos or testimonials for this FSTB or any other one that's a decent price? I want one that looks good but nothing fancy. It just has to work. Do all FSTBs weigh about the same? Most seem to be made of aluminum alloys.

i got my front strut bar for 20 bucks from a local shop. it looks great too, simple design. all fstb's have the same function so the only real difference in price is materials and brand name.

I don't see how those ebay ones can even work. I mean I know they work a little but they have those pivoting ends meaning the bar just twists and doesn't stay even. If you welded them in those places I BET they would work better.

I have the ebay one and the ends tighten. besides I believe all front bars pivot, you can see the Bomz one above also pivots.

Does anybody have a CustomMaxima.com FSTB? I saw this little note on their site:
-->Note: A small number of 2000+ SE models may need small modifications for proper fitment. Simply consists of filing down a bracket which is very simple for anyone to do
What's that all about?

But the Bomz is the best for the money, it may not look good like Stillen but they all do the same thing.
