I like the idea of a solid bar. OEM-looking paint like the hood struts would be awesome. Optional paint colors would be welcomed, like red or blue at least, or maybe a color that better compliments your logo. It gets kinda messy when you offer colors, though, since it's nearly impossible to color-match and compliment aftermarket parts.
The angle of my reasoning: I plan on getting the blue engine cover, so a blue bar has a high chance of looking tacky stretched across the engine bay, not matching the engine cover's blue color.
Are the stock mounting studs designed to withstand the extra pressure from the strut bar? Are they long enough to withhold their length and integrity with having another part bolted to the chassis?
Overall, I'm for this. I know your price will be reasonable. I expect it to cost more than $100, but not a whole lot more.
