SHOW ME YOUR BRACES!!!

Im in the market for a strut brace for my 2010 SS and there doesnt seem to be many options out there. I like the 2011's that are a 2pt brace but the brace is flat with the manufacture on the middle. I like to get one like that, for mine. So if you have one on your 2010 Camaro, "SHOW ME YOUR BRACES"!!!!!

As far as I know I don't think there is an option to put the 2011 and newer strut tower brace on a 2010. We have a couple different options as far as strut tower braces go. Here are a couple pictures to give you an idea. If you have anything I can help you with let me know.

You would have to get them painted. Try your local dealer, that's where I got my stuff color matched cheap.

We don't sell them painted but we do sell our parts bare at a discounted rate that way you could have them painted at you local quality body shop.

in reference to the BMR brace on the silver procharged car...does that type of foot take up the space between the upper retainer hat and the strut tower? You know the area some guys did the rubber washer thing in to stock clunking when suspension completely unloads going over a bump. I know the strut has to rotate so that mount allows turning...I'm just curious if it allows up and down movement at all.

There is supposed to be a space between that strut retainer plate and the shock tower because when you turn the steering wheel that retainer plate pivots back and forth and left and right. The only time you would have any kind of clunking up and down is if both front wheels were off the ground with the suspension unloaded allowing the strut to fall. Under normal driving conditions you should see absolutely no up and down movement with that strut retainer plate.

I love the looks of the 4 point BMR brace like Rickey's! Beside the looks is there any real advantage of the 4 point over the 2 point for the average street use guy?
