Default Spoon strut bar for 4th gen?

I am buying a 5th gen and would love to get my hands on a complete pair of the spoon strut braces but they seem to be very hard to find. Needless to say i found a rear one thats said to be for the 4th gen and am wondering if it will fit a 5th gen? Anyone?

The rears are interchangeable, but the front brace is not.

If you are looking for a 5th gen front Spoon strut bar, I have one I'm selling. Check your PMs.

Honestly Spoon bars are no better than any ebay cheap-o strut bar becuase they are all 3-pieces with nuts/bolts holding them together. Neuspeed is the only 1-piece Prelude strut bar as of now and that is the best way to go.

Diao:
I would definetly be interested in a front bar if you have one for a reasonable sum and thanks for the info I thought the 4th and 5th gens were interchangable but I wanted to confirm first. Shoot me a PM with your price and we can definetly make some arrangements.

Hawkze:
Thats fine, your entitled to your opinion but personally I think they (Spoon parts of any kind) are a very nice quality piece and thats why I don't mind paying for them. If you want to buy el-cheapo ebay parts then by all means but I take more pride in my vehicles then to waste money on parts that _may_ function as well as higher priced parts but certainly don't have the same build quality. I have had neuspeed bars on previous VW's and they are fairly good bargains but I still think the spoon bar is a nicer piece and thats why I bought it.

ha. Yeah we are entitled to our own opinions. But don't expect to have better quality because they are spoon parts and you pay more.

The neuspeed is a one piece front strut bar. It will make the car more rigid where as the three piece bars won't.
