EP3s have a rear strut brace already. Personally I think any strut upgrade is either minimal or noticeable in a placebo-effect kind of way, but does add a bit of glam to the car if that's what you're after.

You may have to scour the likes of the For Sale section, or eBay and the like.

Quick glance at prices for the front:
1) DIY job strut: < £40
2) E-Tech strut: ~£50 second hand
3) Tegiwa strut: ~£95 new (ask them nicely and they'll give you a discount code)
4) J's Racing strut: ~£1,000,000 new

Take your time through the forum though, there's loads of info, sources and things people sell that could potentially help you
