What kind of improvements does it make (essp. in a convertible)? How hard is the install? Why do you need one? And how much should i expect to pay for one?

archemedes

it will help in corners, not much difference on convertable to hard top. It keeps the strut towers from flexing in hard corners, pretty easy to install it's just the strut bolts. For cost I'm clueless

I didn't notice a difference at all with my BMR.

So is it worth it?

Would it be silly to get one for appearance reasons?

archemedes

for you I think it would be silly, unless you really like the looks, but your car doesn't have alot of performance looking parts, so it wouldn't really fit in

RFF

Go for it, every suspension mod helps with the vert.

MeenZ28

Chris, do you have one?

RFF

Nope, I would go with subframes first.

I don't really think it's worth it unless you drive hard on the street. I drive pretty civil so I haven't noticed a difference but people who constantly push their car's notice a difference.

Grant if ure gonna have the hood popped and have some custom **** under the hood why not? I noticed it alittle bit... and every lil bit helps, its more of how hard u drive ure car. The SS has one too but chris is right SFC are the way to go.. I got em and it just feels tighter.

loochy88

it eliminates a bit of the flex up front. youll feel it more if youre going over speed bumps than in regular driving. id say it was worth it though.
