Strut Bars Anyone?

Strut Bars Anyone?
I have a 96 Eclipse RS, put a cold air intake on it last week and I love it. Very good money spent. Full exhaust system was finished about a month ago.
The whole engine is apart now, I'm replacing the head and exhaust manifold gaskets.
So I was wondering if I should put some money into a front and rear strut bar. How much difference would it make? Will I feel any difference in just daily driver road-handling, or will it be just more for looks?

RE: Strut Bars Anyone?
Think about it this way: When you turn your car 1 wheel starts crouching down the other stretches out. The car leans into the turn and the effefcts of such pull and push the top of the struts in various directions. Optimally you don't WANT them to move cuz the more they move the less they can do thier job. Basically the strut bar holds thos tops to one another keeping them a set distance from each other at all times. It will stiffen up the front as well as make things tighter steering wise.
