    I'll admit, I'm cheap and I want nice things. I also want them fast...like Amazon Prime fast! It's rare to order from a company other than Amazon and expect quick deliver. ****, 99% of the companies use the cheapest shipping method and it takes forever! I ordered a Luxon Strut bar from David...

    Has anyone tried installing an aftermarket RSB on a 16? I wonder how different they really are from 15's. I have the Luxon FSTB and am impressed with the quality. TIA!

    Hey Guys, installed a Luxon FSTB on my 2016 SX over the weekend. Definite improvement felt in cornering, as car stays more level and is more composed under hard acceleration. Steering feels slightly tighter too. Highly reccomend this mod to anyone considering it. Installed in 5 minutes.

    I really would like this bar as it seems to be one of the most solid. the UR bar looks so flimsy and thin. looking around everyone is charging 230+shipping, but i've seen it for 180+shipping and wondering if anyone knows a good place to order it now or the near future. concept 3 doesn't stock it...

    I came across this when i was looking for a strut bar. Holiday Gift Package Luxon Braces for Kia 2010 2013 Optima K5 | eBay. I was wondering if this will improve my handling on my car or anything besides the looks lol and will it fit a LX model? Thanks

    I just plastidipped and installed my Luxon bar on my car, which has Ark DTP coils. However, I noticed no there is no way to remove the cap from the top of the camber bolts, without removing the entire strut bar. This means anytime I want to adjust my front camber I need to remove the bar...

    So I did a search on the luxon strut tower braces and I was only able to come up with results for the FSTB. My question is, is anyone running the front AND rear strut tower braces? I have the ark gtf lowering springs and the front is pretty tight. I'm wondering how much of a difference the rear...

    Its so easy that on a scale of 1-10 I would give it a 0. This is very easy to do. I did it in less then 15mins (I took my time, I'm pretty sure someone can do it in like 5min-10mins), Also make sure your vehicle is flat to the ground. I was reading some tips and this is what they recommend...

    So I finally installed my injen intake yesterday. Sounds awesome except it's touching the strut bar. Went around the block and it started to wear down the paint on intake. I have heard of people getting something and putting it between them but does anyone have any pics of this or a suggestion...
