I'd ask JDP Tyler or BMR, either one are great when it comes to making sure things fit.

Okay, here's what I have been told about these fitments….I haven't been able to physically verify this myself….but this is what I was told….
The STB013 (2-point) and STB014 (4-point) only fit the 2010 to mid-2011 V-8's. Supposedly, they will not fit the V-6 because the main bar going across is too big and it rubs or contacts the engine cover on the V-6. I'm guessing the engine cover must sit up higher than the V-8 cover or something. And I would guess that without the engine cover, it might fit??? The STB016 (4-point) fits the same 2010 to mid-2011 V8's as above, and will also fit the V-6 because the main bar is a smaller diameter. I would assume the clearance must still be pretty close then!!! And lastly, the STB017 is the ONLY BMR STB that will fit the pre-drilled shock towers on the mid-2011 and later cars. And as far as I know it will fit both V-6 and V-8 cars. So, OP, the STB017 is really your only choice for a BMR STB. |

Your ride should have pre-threaded holes in the strut tower, 3 ea side.
A 1LE brace from GM fits. I painted mine to match theme.
