Icon2 Ef REAR Lower tie bar, who makes them??

As the title reads...i did a few searches before i did this post. Who makes REAR lowe tie bars for the Ef (1989-1990) Civic. I found so far Beaks and Skunk2 and i think a Benen im not to sure on that one..but is that the only options i have? There is nothing wrong with Ebay stuff i just choose not to buy it . Thanks in advance!

benen doesnt make them for ef. it has to be made fit from an eg one. skunk2 is what i see alot of people run but since they look exactly like the generic ones id buy that. same outcome

I have an Explicit Speed Performance bar. I haven't put it on yet but the front crossmember, 3 point front upper, and 4 point rear upper bars I have of theirs are top notch solid fitment. I'm sure the rear will be no different. I'll probably put the rear on soon but I'm just test fitting stuff before the car gets stripped for paint so I may not.

The bracing is not for tear-outs.

Think about what it's called; a brace, and look what it's connected to. It's for load pushing inwards(ie, during heavy turns) on the LCA's. I couldn't tell you if they really help or not, but that's what their intended purpose is.
Look at the Neuspeed, ESP, Tanabe, Cusco, etc. lower braces/tie bars; there's no way they'll reinforce the swaybar mounts. ASR, SRR, Comptech style braces are a combination of swaybar reinforcement and a subframe brace.

Also, I've had the frame repair shops tell me to use a brace for repaired subframes(I brought in a CRX with bent rear subframe from sliding into a curb at like 10mph).

Im just playing around with the handling a little more and im curious to find out if these acctually serve their purpose. The style is more for just my personal preference. Which I know the looks are not going to matter as far as performance goes, but in some cases they do respond different due to the design sometimes. Over all I have money to spend and I hope it helps alot more on handling. At least for now untill i win the big bucks for a BMDUB lol
Long story short I dont really need one I just want one
Again thanks for the help and info from every one
