Ebay ones saved my life. I have the front and rear BOMZ racing ones, they work pretty good. Just make sure that when you install them, dont overtorque the hex bolt and nut, that hex bolt is weak. I just replaced the hex bolts and nuts with home depot ones.

Try the riceboy-frequented site http://www.procarparts.com . Fight your way through the clearouts and altezzas and youll find strut bars for mad cheap. There is no need for a DC sports or something expensive because these generic ones get the job done fine and the price is right.

Make a home depot one. Do a search for the DIY thread and you'll find instructions on how to make one for 5 bucks.

well, he welds them perfect and makes then any finish you like, and thats shipped anywhere, he said he might be lowering the price to 50, it takes more than 5 min to make, he takes his time, trust me, it looks good and worth it.
