so I went to that shop that imports stuff again.. and they had a bunch of strut bars for the fc.. so I took them all at off the rack and examined them.. the knightsports and feed and HKS ones they had were light as hell.. but they seemed soo flimsy.. this one looked tough.. so i got it.. it fit nicely and is white.. anyways.. anyone have a clue as to who makes it?

I think the Cusco and Greddy strut bars have that flat bar type.

Yeah, every cusco bar I've seen has the flat bar, I got one of the older versions that has the skinny metal tube.

Nah those just looked old school.. but you could tell they were not cheap bars.. I mean the materials, the welds, the hardware.. the quality was definately there. maybe they just realized those were not as effective as the thicked flat bar type.. ? i dunno..
