Default oem strut bar

Before anyone says to search, I have and the search feature here is horrible. That said is the OEM front strut bar very important? I know that there are a lot of people that run their car without them with no mechanical "problems", but will not having it affect handling or body flex in the least bit?

It helps with rigidity, but unless you are tracking your car or know your car very, very well...you're not going to notice much of a difference.

Are you asking because you want to take it off? or because you want to replace it?

Your car will explode if you drive without the strut bar on.
