Any copy's of Mtrix strut bars?

Hey all, I was wondering if anyone out there made a Strut tower/Firewall bar like Mazdatrix made. But out of aluminum. Why would they want to make those out of steel any way, isn't aluminum lighter and more ridgid than steel?
Anyways let me know about these please

I don't think there is any thing similar out there!
They probably make them out of steel because they are more durable...aluminum is lighter but it isn't that ridgid...steel has a longer fatigue level than does aluminum!

I want one of those Mazdatrix strut tower/engine brace but its like $220. If someone could make one for less I would probably buy it.

Chris from CP Racing (he uses guru on these boards, pm him) makes strut bars (front and rear i believe) that connect to the firewall/floor. I think they are around 100 bucks. I also believe they paint them whatever color you want. PM guru or call 519-940-9225
