It really is just ricer crap. I've seen these types of strut braces break under serious stress. They are bisically just for dress up. If you drive your car very easy it will give you some increased rigidity in the chassis, but don't push it or it could break (autocross)
I have these.

they are really sturdy. the mounting brackets are about 1/8" thick and I could jump up and down on the front one and it didn't bend just flexed a little and sprung back into place. they fit well but the front won't work with an AEM style intake.. I'm happy with them.. a solid deal IMO.
