• Distributes Lateral Load To Both Front Strut Towers

FITMENT:

2015-2020 Acura TLX

DC Sports CS-2 Front Upper Strut Bar is a quick and easy way to improve the handling of your 15-20 Acura TLX. Tying together both strut towers allows for significantly reduced chassis flex and improved handling around corners and over uneven roads. Unlike multi-piece aluminum strut bars that need to be constantly readjusted and retightened, DC Sports Struts Bars incorporate a single-piece, steel design. This design ensures precise fitment that eliminates the need for retightening or adjustment in the future.
