Actually, wouldn't "It's a little SMALLER then your dad's," be worse??

As far as it doing something, most folks that have STB's actually serve as a "look good item" as very few folks actually drive the car hard enough for it to be useful.
I agree...For $68 shipped...I paid more for my floormats...

Got an email this morning, already shipped via Gary Yeoman ford. I didn't realize it was their ebay site.
On the fnsweet.com site there is a long thread about how it actually does work....and for $65 its a no brainer imo.

Picked one up myself

Sweet find!! Hopefully it will fit under an '06 stock hood with plenum cover.

I dont think these do anything much for our cars but they add that finished look under the hood and for that low price, its not a bad deal.

I added one and hardly noticed any difference on my coupe, however the one we put on my Dad's convertible and it made a substantial difference in body flex.

Those look much better. I wonder just how much compressive load and bending load the OP's part he linked can take? Compared as to even the stock strut bars that come on GTs equipped with them form the factory that is.

Probably a better performance mod then my fuzzy dice and shorty antenna, but not as good as my M90...
