I put on an ebay front upper strut bar and noticed absolutely NO difference.

Front and rear sway bars are where the handling is at

The rear is the one your going to notice the most difference with, but the front doesnt hurt to have one on.

Front tower bar isn't gonna do much for you, maybe make you push a little bit more. Get a rear sway.

you won't notice the front strut bar unless you already have a modified suspension. If on a stock suspension, then it is just eyecandy.
