Default Rear Strut or Tower Brace that shows?

Is there a Strut or Tower Brace that shows on the REAR like the preludes, civics etc. If so, what brand? I kind of like that detail on the other Hondas.

I think you are referring to the underbody brace. it does nothing but replace the existing one. you can get a DC Sports one in blue, red or chrome. I'm sure Rich can set you up.

I have a Red Billet ComptechUSA Lower Tie Bar. People who drive behind me at night ask "What's that flashing red thing under your car?"

there are two rear braces, both of them do little if nothing at all but replace the stock pieces with stronger units. its really unnecessary to replace them.

the top one, its located in the trunk between the two shock towers. to be seen from behind, you need to rip out the carpeting from your trunk that covers the spare tire and the portion that covers up the pipes leading down to your fuel cell and drive with the trunk lid open. that's the only way that people will be able to *see* it.

the bottom one, it goes below the car and is that fancy schmancy one that is *under* the car on the frame by the diff (by the diff, not connecting to the diff - just a reference point).

yes, C-west is correct, I almost forgot, Comptech has one too. You can PM me if you would like one of those. Thanks.
