mix and match strut bars

is it ok to get a neuspeed front upper strut bar
and just buy some cheep one for the rear and lower, or do they need to be the same to work as they should

I'm waiting until Neuspeed comes out with the rear upper and lower to finish off my all neuspeed strut bar setup.

Neuspeed just came out with their lower front strut bar........Rob has a GB for it going on now.

Hey ballerman, I'm not disagreeing with you. Just would rather have a uniform set instead of a mismatch collection of different companies. I think it looks more professional.............that's just my opinion. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

The difference is all welded construction. No joints means reduced flex. Which is obviously better. So yes, it is better, and it isn't that expensive.

I'm all about mix n match

I got a Neuspeed front strut bar (because of price), OBX reat strut bar (because of availability and price), DC Sports tie bar (because of availability), and RSX sway bar (because of praise).
