    Sold my 07 today and never got around to installing this (had it for many years). BT chassis stiffening plate. Pics from when I bought it. Can take updated tomorrow. 100 shipped via priority mail flat rate (obo)

    In the closeup pic it’s the plate on the right (one with holes is OEM)

    Holy mackeral. I never knew there could be a market for that. I always thought it was just a piece of stamped steel used to keep the exhaust from falling down.

    Sale Pending!

    Anyone know where I can get one of these? I have the Carbing center brace but as my car is lowered, I scrape everywhere with it and looking for ones with a lower profile.

    I did. And even reached our to him personally after I found his ebay account and he says he no longer makes them. I don't think there are anymore aftermarket options and I can't even find the part number or what the stock one is officially called. But he says he has a couple of stock ones and I'm buying one. The Carbing brace was really effective but sucks that I can't go over large speed bumps or enter driveways without a loud CRUNCH
