I'm interested in their

Front Upper Tri-Pod (strut bar)
X-Member Brace
Strong Bar <-- (strut bar?)

just want to hear opinions

 

You're probably looking for people who have used them in Civics, but I'll go ahead and throw in my opinion

I have the 3pt front strut bar in my 98 GSR and I like it alot! Very stiff and nice looking.

 

their products seems nice. but their service...i dunno

smzgsr - koo, thats what i was lookin to hear. . .did you have to drill into the fire wall for the top part of the strut bar??

unjockable - sorry to here they are ignoring you, i hope their reputation doesnt preced how you are describing them, i figure i live about 2hrs MAX drive (thats granny driving too) away, when i'm ready to buy, im just gonna drive over there to them

 

no drilling needed on my integra. Just had to unbolt an existing bracket and then put the bar between it and the firewall.

 

Benen products are quality and beefy, but I'm less than impressed by their business skills.

i agree.

i'm not hear to put out a bad name for them. i think their products are very high quality ****. but they seems not to even want my business. so i take my money elsewhere.

 

ive never had a problem with ken or any of the benen guys , but im local so i can just go over there . i love their products , always have

 

good luck. i had a 3pt upper on order for like a month. and then cancelled becuase it looked like they were never going to make one.

 

Well, i take it if you live within driving distance (like myself and hella_jdm) one would be okay, but it no. . guess not huh

 

ive been tryin to get a front upper bar from them for months. I emailed them a while ago, march or april, to place an order and they said they would have their strut bars available in August. Ive been trying to get a hold of them since then but no answers. I even called their distributors on their site and they stopped carrying benen products plus they cannot even get a hold of benen. Thats my experience.

SeanJohn1802 if you get a hold of them let me know whats up

I have the strong bar - quality is very nice... it bolts to 2 bolts in the floor of your trunk back towards the rear of the car... in between the spare tire well & the taillights...this bar & a rear strut bar are 2 completely different bars

 

BENEN=Good **** and Good people

 

most of there stuff is to0 bling for me, but well made

there is better suspension stuff out there like edelbrock on the strut tower bar ect

ah, i see, i like that

JDM R, when i get anything from them or pay them a visit, ill be posting up my expierence and so forth

and for anyone else, i'll also let them know about all you's guys on HT that you guys been tryin to get a hold of em

 

HMM,well I like my X-member brace.It works well and at the moment I dont have a front upper strut bar (because im waiting to pick up the 3pt bar as well) so I figure once I get them both teamed up together then I will see even more improvment.I dont know if this helps any.
