Default Rear shock tower brace

Looking into stiffening up my car a bit now that I have done the suspension. I'm going to get sub frame connectors and prob a front strut tower brace but should I get a rear also? Does anyone have one in there car? What company? and was it worth loosing the trunk space?

I do have one, but only because I put in a Targa Top. Verts have them....No it doesn't take up too much room, maby like 5 inches off the top, where the speakers are. If you don't have more than 300hp, and don't run slolom, i would say it's just for show. I have a chrome, and paid $189 for it through Jeg's.

Well in my car it would connect one wheel well to the other, so it sits low (not near the speakers) And i just dropped the car two inches and plan on doing some road course racing in the future. I found some on ebay for right around $100... nothin fancy, just powder coated black.

www.kennybrown.com they used to have em. Theyre mainly for auto cross, road race. If you drive your car hard, and I mean really HARD, its definitly a good investment.
