Front strut tower brace MK3

Has anyone produced a front strut tower brace yet? I have already seen that hotchkiss has sway bars which I am about to order.

Super sport lowering spring. Anybody have them? How's ride quality?

The MK3 has a strut tower brace from the factory. It is not adjustable though. There are a few sway bars on the market.
Whiteline
Steeda
James Barone Racing

I havent heard anything on the super sport springs. Who makes them?
