Now Normally I hear the name Ractive and i think crappy rice stuff. I found a Ractive rear strut tower bar for a 95-99 Talon On many of these bar that have been prooven to fit the colt but everyone has mentioned different brands of bars require different amounts of trimming on the plastic peices the Ractive bar requires barely any trimming of the plastic peices and its all. The trimming and be done with side cutters on the top of the plastics I have pics of the bar it looks almost factor. As for fit and finish I have the bar a 9 out of 10 it doesn't look to be the most stiff bar on earth as for functional I don't know as it was bolted into my project car... I'll know soon enough.

[[geez c5golfguy was a dick - he was waaay worse than mysteryman]]

i have generic ebay strut tower bars [4g mirage front (hacked], and 2g dsm rear] and they look nice in a ricey kinda way, but i could tell a difference. i think if i had a super fancy suspension they might make a difference. unless you do, just buy better beer for a couple weeks.

i agree on the 2g DSM rear tower bars. i noticed a difference in cornering on stock suspension. you can literally feel the difference.
