Its basically a chassis brace. No real need to replace it, stock works fine. The only reason you would get a different one is A.) Looks or B.) Clearance for dual over the axle exhaust. I think there are a few sponsors that have them... not sure which ones..
I would just leave it alone personally and spend my money in other areas of greater benefit.

As mentioned above - there really is no need to replace that bar - unless you are having a clearance problem with exhaust over the axle area.
For that BMR makes a Upper Panhard Relocation Kit that includes a new design upper bar and PS dropped mount to attach that bar + Lower Panhard Bar.
Of course, you have to sell your 1st born child to afford it - UMI stated they were working on a version - should be out early this year - UMI will most assuredly sell their kit for a realistic price...

BOSS APPROVED!
I bought the aftermarket bar from BMR off of one of our sponsors. I only bought it to get my True Duals out the rear of the car...It works really well for the duals. If you are not planning on running TD's then I would leave it alone...Just replace the lower Panhard.
