Best place for parts?
Looking to get strut bars for my Fit. Front, Rear, and C-Pillar. Can anyone recommend a good place to buy with good to decent prices? I'm looking towards Ebay, because everywhere i look is nothing but $200 strut bars. I'm not looking for name brand per say, but really just a quality one for the right price.
I don't know many places to get GD3 parts so if anyone can recommend me sites or ideas.
Thanks

Agreed, I'm looking at Ebay parts that are going around 20-50. Do you think its worth it? I figured its a piece of metal so there's not much room for poor quality. Any input on this? Aj-racing.com is a great site but the prices are way too high, but I understand, its because they sell name brand parts.

To be honest, on my last car, my best and cheapest mod was a $20 strut bar that I bought from Chinatown LA. They're the same ones that are sold on ebay. Difference after putting it on was like night and day.

my old subie had ebay bars on it. really ebay has hit or miss stuff. its cheap stuff but the size of the bars and the material used is cheap too. my buddy had cusco bars and they were quite thicker and just all around built better but i could have bought 4 or 5 of my cheap ebay bars for what he payed. its really all about how much money you want the shell out for your car. personally i would just get a progress rear sway bar and a tanabe under brace. those are the two bars where you will really notice a differance. the others are a placebo for a street driven fit. thats really all the reinforcement you need unless your tracking your fit. i have the tanabe front strut that i might be taking off and selling soon but im undesided.

Thanks. I really like HondaFitTuner.com the prices can really compete with Ebay and they seem at least fool proof'd. So far I'm wondering now is how do I search for Fit C-Pillar bars? Call me weird but when I put it in I get C-Pillars for different hondas like EKs and stuff.
If you guys have anymore sites or info about buying on Ebay keep em coming! Thanks for your help guys!

most rear strut tower bars won't really do anything to our cars cause they bolt up straight to the shocks not the body, so if you are buying this to make your car feel stiffer, don't buy just any rear strut tower bar.
the only rear strut tower bar i can think that is worth it is cusco because they mount on the brackets of your rear seats

I see. Well I also think its worth a shot, I'm not losing too much compared too $100 purchases so yeah. But I just wanted to strut bars because its the easiest way to make the car more rigid.
