Megan Racing Strut Bars

Just wondering if any of you guys have one of these?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...982567958&rd=1

I never purchased any Megan Racing Product. Are they Crap? The Strut Bars actually looks pretty fudgin nice IMO.


Anyone with experience with these Strut Bars please chime in.

Also, try searching for just ebay strut bar(s). I'm sure these Megan Racing strut bars arn't any worse than the other ebay strut bars, so that should give you an idea on how good they are.

IMO, It's all about the welds. The position of those ones isn't the strongest way to mount them, but for the price, may as welll give it a shot!

I think it looks sweet, and it should work just fine.
I have one of those similar "JDM yo" ebya 20 bux strut bars for over 3 years, working perfectly, I actualy noticed a difference in driving after I installed it, looks pretty darn good to.

Not cheap enough to pay $200.00-300.00+ just for looks when you can get an el-cheapo ebay brace for 20 bux that will do the same job, and spend the rest of the money on real mods, that's how I see it
