Usually, an ebay part like this is Junk. Endplates are usually really flimsy and you can visually bend these bars by hand so they won't really resist flex or strengthen any area of the car - if you're after a purely visual upgrade then you can't go wrong but if you're after a piece that has some function you should stay away.

Ever see most dirt cheap ebay strut bars out there? The endplates are usually just tack welded and can be broken by hand - just think, if they are selling for $30 a piece imagine how much it costs to produce...

Rear lower tie bars from GT Spec are coming at very affordable prices and I'm sure DC Sports and the like will have their own pieces for the FG in time.
