some of their prices seem a little odd personally... like the stock replacement front strut tower to firewall braces are $400 but yet the whole strut tower bar with master cylinder brace is less than half that...

I think its a simple lack of parts on the market so cusco is jacking up prices for now. Wait a couple months and they'll be price cutting. I guess you could say they most likely invested more to get these parts out the door faster so they have a right to charge more.

^Not too sure on that. Cusco has seemed to be quite pricey on alot of their products. At least for the WRX.

The yen is not being nice to the dollar right now... even if it were, that would probably still be a $500+ cover that you don't need unless you're endurance racing...

It's not for looks, LOL. It actually does improve oil capacity and cooling, but it's unnecessary for a street driven car.
