First bling mod :P 
Yeap you heard it. I bought a Hotchkis strut tower brace. While it does tighten the car up, I bought it primarily for the bling/pimp factor.
I'd like to thank Lingenfelter SS who I bought it off of. Very smooth deal, except for stupid traffic!

Think it has the extra pieces because it is extremely light weight polished aluminum--prob makes the alum piece a bit stronger. I recently picked up the polished one at a great deal from someone in the classified section and sold my red hotchkis.
Far as chroming goes, no clue. Seems like some places charge insane amounts while others are reasonable, I would think around $100

so basically smarter to buy a polished one and sell the red one right? well this wont be for a very very long time. since this isn't even a week old.
