What makes you say aluminum is such a bad choice??? And you do realize that the benefits of a strut bar is minimal, since most hondas dont have struts....

What makes the password bar a bad decision? Seems more like a "JDM" opinion to me.

If you have a pre 2001 civic you have a double wishbone suspension, which does not have a strut. The strut tower isn't stressed part of the chassis like in macpherson strut cars (i.e. post 2001 civics).

That password bars don't look like a bad option at all if you HAVE to put them on your car. Theyre solid pieces with no hinges, and if they're made of aluminum are lightweight. Which is always a bonus.
