I`ve seen these in a German online shop and I was wondering if these are any good. They are really expensive in Germany so I wanted to ask if anyone knows about the quality? Are these parts worth the high
price?

For the upper front bar the price is 300 EUR and for the lower rear bar it is 170 EUR :eek:

My problem is that there aren`t too many dealers in Germany selling parts for my Civic so you basically have to take what you can get... :'(

DC Sports makes the best tie bars on the market IMO. There titatium front upper is the bomb. It goes for around $245 us. Plus, it looks cool and is very light(around 1 lb) and functional.

Actually, it was the titanium bar I could get for 300 EUR.

It definitely will look very nice in my CTR, maybe I will order it but 300 EUR is a lot of money for a strut bar... :(

Yes, it does look nice, but I wish I had the Neuspeed bar instead. Ever since I installed it I get a poping sound when I make a wide right turn. Install kinda sucks becuase you cant get to the back nuts really easy when the bar is installed.

It 9:00 over there! It's only a little after 3 am here. 300 eur sounds like a pretty good deal.

The DC bar IMO looks like an unfinished prototype with the welds. I would highly recommend getting the Neuspeed bar; 4 mounting points like the DC and about half the price. Neither bar attaches to the firewall so the differences in performance is minimal. Just my .02
