Default Who's got struts and which ones?

I'm looking to put front and rear struts. I need it to clear the engine cover and the only one I found that does that is the JIC Magic but they are so hard to find. What do you guys have and what can you guys recommend? I appreciate the help.

My JIC and TCS FSTB's rubbed on the engine cover and the hood liner. People say that PLP (discontinued) consistently cleared the engine cover. I actually don't like the engine cover, so I took it off.

PLP:


JIC:


TCS:

^Wow, very cool triangle SB braces. Make more and start a group buy. lol.

I have a Tom's rear stut bar and in the process of getting a JIC front shut bar.

I've never heard of Area 5. I'll be researching about that one.
