Default Rear Strut Tower Brace Questions

Alright guys.
Now that the stereo got stolen I have a reason to put a rear strut tower brace in the car, since there's no speaker box in the way.

Anyhow. I can't really decide on which to get. I can't say that I want to spend $200 on some friggin strut tower brace, but do you guys have any suggestions on which is a reasonably priced bar, performs decently and isnt some generic piece of crap?

Thanks.

I was looking into this myself... I was going to get the JDM ITR bar, so it'd match my front bar. Then I realized for that much money, I could just get the Spoon bar and be better off.

Then I realized I use my hatch JUST enough for it to be a pain in the ass.

I would go with the OEM JDM ITR bar. That is what I am going to get for my car.:thumbup:

Where can I get / see this said JDM ITR Bar and the Spoon Bar?

I don't want Tanabe or DC Sports, either.


Anymore suggestions guys?>

Skunk2 is good...does it's job...pretty sturdy and it goes for about 150...I used to have a bass tube and used some straps to mount it to bar....just a suggestion if you were planning on getting another system or a bass tube.
