Front strut bar does nothing for handling, but it looks pretty under the hood.

OGPACKIN the setup looks great but I think he was only asking about strut bar. I dont think he was looking to go as professional as you.

He was asking about the T1R asm style strut bar that has 4 mounting points.
I do think the strut bar with 4 points will add alittle rigidity but the normal strut bar did nothing for me.

I believe he asked for pics or "a front strut bar and an x brace" . Im showing him pics of my x-brace. It just happens to show a whole lot more...

Okay my mistake what threw me off is that I don't believe T1R doesn't make a lower x-brace

Ok now its my mistake. I didnt read that he was looking for specifically t1r x-brace. Mine is a Ricks Billett x-brace
