Their headers show pretty good numbers, actually. But I wouldn't buy anything else from them.

What do you mean bend, like bend the metal bar in half? If so yes I'm sure that isn't good. I believe the DCs are sort of rectanglar with rounded edges, unlike Neuspeed which is just round tubing, and round hollow tubing is stronger since it allows some flex unlike solid tubes which are more brittle, but hollow rectangles probably aren't good for anything/

yes, bend the bar in half. it doesnt even feel like the bar is made of a metal. more like plastic.

I have the DC rear lower tie bar, and I don't think it's that bad, definitely not as bad as the upper bars. Probably because it's shorter, and unlike their upper bars, it is flat :dunno: But it's definitely the best looking

It does feel like plastic. To it's credit, when I used it on my old car, it did get rid of a creaking noise I had in the front end when going up driveways at an angle.

:doh: Someone's gotta be the guinea pig. I gave DC the benefit of the doubt. But now I have to save others who do from making the same mistake.

neuspeed good
spoon good, (my wallet just heard that and cried)
