Ive had the vert bar and the ebay strut bars which are the same design as most of the more expensive ones out there. Lets say stock no bar is 0 of 10 the ebay/other after market are a 5 of 10 and the vert bar is 10 of 10 as far as how the car felt with them on. Might not be pretty but it is the most functional.

ok thanks. Will the rear bar from the cav work on the rear of my 03sunfire too?
Re: Cheap strut tower bars?

you can only get rear bars from an aftermarket company. i have TWO extra covnertible front strut bars in my room lol. one has the cruise bracket and both have the double fire wall mounting brackets.

a strut brace really isnt that difficult or complex a part so the doubled term 'cheap' really hasnt got much meaning for one.

i have had a $26 shipped front megan racing aluminim bar for the better part of a decade now, it works just fine. ive also got two dc sports front bars, two vert bars, and a vibrant ive tried... a lot of the time people dont get that you need to tighten the adjustable aluminum bars up so sure of course they arent going to do jack then.

the vert bar is strong yes but its also made from steel thus making it heavier. the difference isnt enough to warrant the weight addition IMO. the 3 to 5 pound difference wont be felt nor will most care so it really doesnt matter either way.

now... someone makes an identical vert style bar with the firewall mounts out of aluminum then you'd literally have the best. lightweight and functional.
