Anyone replace the stock Strut Tower Bar that weighs a ton?

Similar to a single bar like this picture:

I posted this hoping someone knows where we can find a lightweight strut bar similar to this picture. Our stock piece is a monster in weight.

I found one company in Canada that makes a single strut bar for our 370Z and claims it is 10lbs. If true it would be a big weight reduction. The only problem is the internet is full of bad reviews and experiences with this company.

Have to keep looking and or try to have one made.
