Thats a good looking piece although from the pics its hard to see how it attaches. With the one from MOPAR it attaches at the Strut Towers which will provide strength from tower to tower. Not sure how the Razor one would attach but I will sure look into it. Thanks for the heads up.

Horrible. Looks like a NASCAR Prototype.

I think it'd look pretty good in black. It does have that roll bar look, but that only makes me believe it's pretty damn sturdy.

What about the top shock covers? Looks rather unfinished if left exposed.......and it seems as if these need to be left off when using the strut brace. If the Mopar type is offered as shown....I would consider otherwise no..............

Mopar Accessories has come out with a new one from Razors edge that looks pretty darn sweet!

They also put out one for the rears. Looks like I have new toys to order!

I think with both of these in place it will stiffen that car up fairly well.

The rear stock tower brace is absolutely a waste of money, Unless you are running a rear coil over shock set up. To be honest, the front shock tower brace is also, because your tires will start to scrub way before struts in the towers start to flex. If the Challenger has a unibody, then go with the full matrix sub frame connectors that also employ the jack rail set up. This would not be a waste of money, but the sfc's will add about 50lbs to the weight of the car.
