Bonneville Strut Tower Brace

I have a 2003 SLE and was looking to add a strut tower brace. I was wandering if it would really make a difference or not.
Thanks

I can testify. It does stiffen the handling up quite a bit and looks good.

I don't know where your getting these prices. I went to a dealer and it was almost $200 for the brackets and bar. One of the brackets was almost as much as the bar! I don't know why.
