From the looks of the ad, they make it themselves.
If you follow the link to their ebay store, there's a link to their homepage.

and how do you like it?
It looks okay, but has anyone driven on one? It appears to be a "too good to be true" kind of things...given the price.

They are going to sell the crap out of those things at that price, weather it is good or not. Most sales will be change for the sake of change sales. I will not even waste my time analyzing suspension / geometry / bla, bla. bla. It looks weak to me. I have not seen any 2 x 3 subframes that were strong enough for Pro Touring applications. Maybe with some front firewall to frame bars (in a coupe only), it might be strong enough for drag / street race applications

No sway bar at all??
I guess for a Pro Street application it will be fine, certainly a low price.

Roll bar is an $220 option.
