Well, you can't have both. Cheap but good
So, just order Steeda's part # 555-5725 NOT cheap but well built!

You had asked about strut cover caps. Although I purchased the Steeda Billet brace you can get a billet cap and nut covers from UPR for about $100. Enjoy!

The NPI unit is looking to be about 295-300 but will incorporate stiffer design, work on v6 and v8's. And of course come with a pure polished carbon fiber brace over a steal bar.

The main price hike on most this stuff is the billet ends.
The bar will look something like this.

I installed the strut tower covers from UPR Products a few months ago. Actually I was the first one to order them, they sent me a note with the package. They are polished aluminum and look real nice.

I saw the UPR braces in person today on a black GT and they looked great.
