Hi, I have been doing some searching and I've found that LX-I's and some carb'd 3G's have front/rear strut bars. I was wondering if anyone had an idea where i could get one for my 87DX. I believe some are custom? If so perhaps how it was made or aquired? Thank you in advance!

What do you hope to achieve by adding a front shock tower bar?

if u cant find onethat fits they are hella easy to make if u can get hold of a welder. it took me about an hour to make my rear upper bar. thats all ive had time to make yet . it started on the front of my car and fit good and theni modded it to fit in the back on the strut mounts .also u can customize some of the civic bars to fit but u stillneed access to a welder.i think i seen some on the tradin post still the othher day.
