GE8 Strut Bar, Strut Tower Bar, Strut Brace

Looking for options.


This is the only one I found.


Strut tower bar for new Honda Fit(GE8) left handle version What's new English page CUSCO


$127 before tax from japan


Checked Cusco USA and they want $200 and require mod. to hood plastic air director I think.


Anyone have a strut bar installed on GE8 that I can look at in the Raleigh, NC area?


Have a short ram intake installed and want to see the clearance.

May i suggest that you also install the Cusco Lower arm bar ver.1 & 2. They're very good to have.

Tanabe's offerings are great too. From strut bars to mid-brace to sway bars. It's all offered on a poor modders budget for sure.

Thanks for the idea.


Tanabe does not offer Strut Bar (front) for GE8.

Are you guys ordering your parts directly from the companies? I've searched and search and seems like no one carries these parts or has them listed on their websites.

Tanabe hasn't listed the part number or price on their ge8 under brace yet, anyone know or have heard of it?
