        DAMN, those are some bad prices you are getting quoted there.

        First of all, I wouldn't buy anything from EA, unless I had to, so I'm not going to even bother addressing that one.

        iPd's is decent, but you can get the same ones from European distributors for MUCH less.

        I bought my OMP strut tower brace for $120 US. I know a couple people in Canada that paid about the same, +- $10 for the same aluminum ones that iPd and Volvo sell.

        Where are you located? If in the states, I would look into the OMP, it's the best in terms of performance. Most of the aluminum ones from Europe go for $100 US. And most ship to the US within 1-3 weeks for abour $20 or less.

          Looks like the board is a little screwy right now, as far as posts in the right spot, but

          I was responding to your statement of never hearing of a bar over $150, and I was just pointing out that there are a few out there. I know there are less expensive ones, as in my earlier response to Tim, I said I bought one from SAM for $98!

          I've never had the pleasure of ordering from EA, but it sounds like they should be avoided. (Kai really seems to go off on them!)

    I just ordered a SAM Upper Strut Bar. 1036 Krona =$98 or so. Shipping really isn't that bad (from Sweden), though I ordered other items from them, so I couldn't tell you what the shipping would be for just the bar.
