I fitted Ultra Racing's strut bar today and the sway bar is back ordered. I'm happy with the quality of the product as it fitted without any issues. They retail here in Thailand for around 150 USD and are made in Malaysia.

Unless I missed it, no one seems to make trunk braces for the Civic coupe. Only for the sedan and hatch. Disappointing and hopefully that changes. I installed the RSX Type R rear trunk bar and did feel a difference just from that.

I don't know man. The price seems incredible but I doubt the quality/fitment is there on a no-name product like that. I say buyer beware.
This is not genuine cusco parts.

I took my car here to Cusco in Huntington Beach CA. They test fitted the type r parts on my Si, and asked what else was available. Non of these were available.

Just a heads up for anyone looking at it.

Finally got my strut bars after a mix up.

The fitment on the front strut bar seem to be a little off but it bolts on after scraping some paint off.

The rear bars are not bolt on. It comes with hardware to attach nuts on the back plate where it bolts on. I havnt gotten time to install that yet. I will update once i do

How exactly did you mounted the rear bar ?I've seen that the holes are not flush with the sheet metal so is this shimmed out somehow ?And how did you mounted the supplied brackets ?With the nuts in the hole?Other way around would seem to crush the offset sheet metal...

I've had about 3 cars with strut tower bars. Always bought the 3 piece from Cusco. Never felt a difference. This time I decided to try a 1 piece because everyone always said 3 piece don't do anything. Bought the dc sports 1 piece. Felt the difference before I left the driveway. I'll never buy a 3 piece again. End of story

Can you please post a link to that exact DC sports 1 piece you're referring to?
