I saw these on ebay this morning:
eBay Motors: NST 06-07 Honda FIT -FRONT- Strut Brace / Bar by DME (item 110143774915 end time Jul-07-07 18:18:31 PDT)

So, has anyone tried these yet? Any thoughts?

I just got a set of Custo front and rear bars and they look just alike.

ONE BIG DIFFERENCE FROM EVERY OTHER REAR STRUT BAR FOR OUR FITS!!!

They don't mount to the rear shock studs, they bolt to the sides of the unibody around the metal loop that holds up the back seats and brace with leverage on top of the shock's base wich in turn is braced by the bar itself. I think this design seems a lot more functional than the other rear strut bars I've seen.

I'm gonna try a little bit of "canyon carving" around some local roads that have some nice twisties this weekend before installing the rear strut bar and with just the rear strut bar and I'll post my comments in here (be it positive or negative). Then and only then will I install my front strut bar. I think that should settle it.

I'm gonna track the car on the 4th of August, I think I can play around by removing and installing the bars alone and together and see if I notice a difference at the track.
