Spoon Sports DC5 Strut tower and tie bars fit the Civic
We already ahve put all the spoon DC5 strut tower bars and front and rear tie bars on the swap car... but just put the front upper on my red civic... MUCH better than the generic polished one before it. even the polished metal is like a mirror on the spoon one... 
BTW... i carry all the spoon bars for DC5 along with any other spoon pieces..... and mugen soon to come as well
feel free to email me or look on my site for info

sweet. i was aware that the rear strut bar and tie bars fit, but not the upper front. And it doesn't rub against your intake?? well snap ..... good deal. if only the mugen stuff would fit, that would be awsome. but spoon is JDM too sooo i'll get that instead

I've got the Spoon Sports FSTB as well. Installation is super-smooth. Nothing gets in the way. 100% bolt-on.
The only thing that's annoying is that the holes in the black brackets are a lot wider than the bolt size. This means that you have to torque the crap out of the bolts in order for the bar to be secure and do what it's meant to do. Stupid!
I will think of something to remedy this situation. Maybe spacers that fill in the gap around the hole in the bracket. You need a shim betwean the bar and the bracket as well since the aluminum is compressed as you tighten the bolt. I think I might make a kit for you peeps that want to install this thing the right way and have it actually work.
