Upper Strut Bar

Hey guys...this is my first Honda, so I am very new to all this stuff. I wanted to know a good upper strut bar that will fit and won't break the bank for me. I already bought one and the idiot gave me what he said "would fit an '01 Civic." But it didn't. So any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, what do ya'll think of 17" on a Civic? Too big?

First off, what make strut bar is it. Mine is neuspeed and it fit perfectly.

Second, I'm debating whether to put 17" or 16" on my civic. It's your car so it's your choice, 16's are more for performance, but 17's are more for show.

If you plan on getting an AEM CAI sooner or later, you need to get either DC or neuspeed. Other brands won't fit. It just so happens that these are probably the two most expensive ones. I also advise you to do a search, this has been talked about alot. Hope this helps.

Awesome guys! That really helps. To tell you the truth, I took it back already and I don't remember what kind it was. So the Neuspeed one worked well? I think I may opt for that one. You don't have to drill any extra holes do you? Since I am going for performance, I may be going for 16". Thanks guys!

the neuspeed bar kicks a$$, but it cost about 3x the amount you paid for the one that didn't fit.....
