Default DC Sports front strut bar for accord question

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...52BSS

This seems too good to be true. Is this a true front strut bar for an accord? Also, does it matter if the car is a coupe or sedan? It just says 4 cyl accords fill fit.

PLEASE ANSWER IMMEDIATELY SO I CAN PURCHASE.

But its a DC Sport brand, which is apart of AEM--a high quality performance brand.

Why is it ebay quality?

Other than ripping that from the product's description.

You're paying $25 for a strut bar, you'll get $25 worth. (lol not to mention $54 shipping)

It won't be amazing quality. It'll have more moving parts than a quality one, etc.

Well the exact same product # HTA3016 is located at http://www.globalautoshop.com/...s.htm . And is listed for $152.

So if I were to buy that item, it would be the exact same thing, but i'd just be paying 5x the ebay amount.

At that price (which seems ridiculously high btw) you can get a brand new Cusco bar.

http://www.evasivemotorsports....de=EM

Which is much stronger.

Those Cusco bars go for $70 used on eBay.

Plus, you're not paying 5x the ebay price, you're paying 2x. $25 + $55 = $80 Which it isn't worth it, shipping a strut bar is $10 tops.
