Default EK 3 point strut bar

Are there other alternatives to the Carbing 3-point bars that dont cost quite the grip that the carbing bar does?

thanks

The Benen Industries 3 pt bar is the only other one I know of. It has a MRSP or $199. It's what I plan to get when it comes time for me to get one.

I heard JG Edlebrock has a 3 point bar for civics, not sure if it fits the EK's though. Defintely cheaper than Carbing.

are you talking about the benen bar?
if so they do make them, i have one on my civic.
for those with a cx/dx/lx it doesn't fit over the factory airbox but if you have an aftermarket intake it fits over it just fine.

guys the benen fits , ive been all around this company for a while , seen them on plenty ek's........it fits . but it doesntbolt up to the strut posts on the shock tower , it screws in on the outside of it , like 99-00 SI's all you gotta do is drill , the car already has the spots marked.

carbing has the aluminum ones (cost more) and the steel ones (cost less)...don't know exact cost on both though.
