Hanging a CD from the rearview mirror to shield your radio from cosmic rays serves more of a purpose.

Peejay, That made me chuckle. I think I'm over it now. I wouldn't mind that racing beat front strut tower. The single piece with the inserts for each strut.

Not sure who makes this or if it's fabricated. I asked the seller of the car to try and determine the make. Anyways, here ya go..

Update:

re amemiya apparently makes these braces but I can't find them anywhere.. Maybe it's an old product.
IMO this looks like it's sitting too high and probably is just connected the top of the struts where the bolt onto the body

old thread, but im bumping it so I can share a pic later on my phone of my home made rear upper strut bar. give me an hour or two and i'll have pics up. this DID require drilling into the strut top mounts inside the car but it's well worth it in my opinion and a small but noticeable difference
