looks like a nice piece and it almost matches the red lip on your wheels.

too bad it does not have a master cylinder brace built into it.

No it's not adjustable Razz. And It was about $135.00.
As for the master cyl. brace , one could add one on to it. Some of the ones I've seen look like something someone purchased the parts at Home Depot. Then they welded it on there nice new strut bar themselves.

Is there any significant benefit in installing a strut bar?

Or is it the psychological effect of adding something new that sells these??

Was it painted? GTSpec has a orange/polished style, unless they recently changed?
