front strut bar: Aluminum, Steel, or titanium?
Forgive me if this is already available. I've searched and couldn't find anything.
I was just wondering what the best material is for a strut bar. It seems like a strut is a strut, since there really isn't any moving pieces, but I could be severely wrong. What's the best material? Best manufacturer? Should I go with the less expensive aluminum one, the DC-Sports steel, or NRG's titanium? Thoughts? Comments? Thanks!

Honestly, you're not going to notice a hell of a difference unless you drive your box reasonably hard. The shock towers are up against the firewall, so there's not a ton of flex to begin with.
That being said, the DC Sports is easily the beefiest one available. I'd go that route.
