I got the J-Speed front and the Cusco oval rear in today. Put them on and boy do they make a difference. Plus they are a nice addition to the engine bay and the trunk. Here are the pics of the bars.

Jspeed and cucso are both 3pt you can order them form bulletproof. one thing that sucks is waitng for them to come

the one I ordered is taking like 2 months

thanks, i got antoher question...I know the Sway bar reduces body roll, but what does a strut bar do?? do both of them have the same effect?
