nice. looking good. Someone said that the strut bar doesnt do much for a TL but I guess they're wrong. If you feel the difference thats great. I bet it will be much more noticable when you put the sways on.

i've read countless times that the OEM bar on the typeS is 27mm and stiffer than most other bars out there.
Congrats on finding out for yourself!

how much did you pay for it if you don't mind me asking?

I'm glad you like the front strut bar. I had the OS-type Cusco bar and didn't notice much of a difference (ie I have a '02 Type-S with the OEM bar as well). I don't know if the TL-P has a bar there ... if not ... then you'd definitely notice a difference.

Wait until you install the Comptech sways -- you will definitely notice a difference in cornering. No doubt. Be sure to put on teflon tape and a lot of grease if you are including poly bushings. I've had mine on for 4+ years and they're starting to squeak like mad.
