Please tell me who makes tubular kmembers!

Please list all companies that make them for 3rd gens.

I paid almost 500 dollars for one from Raceware. Looked good in the box although it didn't look like 500 bucks worth.

Anyway, had to pry and prod to get it on. Then I realized that I needed 4 new bolts because the stock ones are now too long. Finally, it is on. Then I go to put the stock lcas on and they won't fit. They interfere with the crossmember. The guys at Raceware said they would work. They don't. Also, they said I would drop 60 pounds by just adding the kmember. Yeah right. My stock kmember doesn't weigh any thing close to 80lbs. Maybe 50.

Anyway, I am pissed. I will call Monday and I might be shipping this thing back.

Any other companies out there?

BMR, SPOHN....I know that BMR makes good products, but I don't know much about their K-members, and Spohn makes good products (pricey), but once again I don't know much about their K-member's
