I've heard only amazing things about these things. I came across ZZP's brand and Wbodystores at like 70+ dollars, than there is the GM version and its 24.99. Whats the diff?

http://www.wbodystore.com/grandprix/gm-strut-tower-brace-p-199.html

I think i'll grab that sometime soon, seeing as my neighborhood and all surrounding areas are full of turns, and taking them fast(er) is always fun ! Is that a good product to go with?

Looks. Is the only difference. The GM one looks standard and blends in nicely.

Personally I put both the front and rear on and never noticed a difference. Then again I don't go throwing my GP around turns.

NextLevel/SpeedBuilt. But those are discontinued, and can only find them used now. BMR is supposedly a good brand. Heard good things about GMPP, but I didnt like the fact that I would need additional brackets to mount if I didnt wanna drill into the strut towers.

The rear one goes on the rear. Open your trunk and you can see your rear strut towers hiding underneath the carpet.

Durr LOL! Thanks. Is it really worth buying the rear ? I figure the car would sway more on the front since thats where the steering is done? Probably wrong but oh well haha.
