Low tie bars are useless without upgraded rear sway bar.

Thumbs up for carbing products.

I got front upper strut bar and it's alright..

Kinda off topic, But is the Lower tie bar required when upgrading the rear sway? I have an OEM RSX sway on its way and I was just curious before I mount it up.

not to thread jack or nothing but im going to start making my own tie bars for 7th gens only, Im making a lower bar thats identical to this design, the only exception is that ill be making it and selling it for under 50 bucks made of steel and very strong and durable. Im an acomplished welder.
if anyones interested let me know
im also making front upper X braces, that connect the strut tower bars, and the front radiator support all together, they are a custom deal and i can make them for you application, i have a 01 ex 2dr so all the measurements i have are for that.

^pretty cool, i might jump on that if you get a few people on here happy with them. you should look into making strut tower bars like the neuspeed ones for us. then look into making b-pillar bars and maybe x braces connecting b-pillar bars to the rear deck or rear seat mounts.

im actually prototyping a new strut tower design at the moment, it will function much like a lower x mrace except it will be under your hood i have the fitiment figured out but now im toying with the rigidity aspect to mke it even stronger, it makes the front end feel drastically better, better than that neuspeed or dc sports peice of crap.

you should leave them unpainted, just put a lil oil on it so it doesnt rust.
if i have to paint it i will do it nice, if i get one already painted i wont bother to repaint it nicer lol.
