Strut Tower Brace

I have a 2011 Camaro SS Coupe and want to add the the strut tower brace from GM but noticed (after buying it) that it won't fit 11 SS Coupe. I've seen a thread or 2 with a link to a site (or ebay) where an adapter kit is available. Anyone have that site?

Does anyone have a photo with the strut tower brace installed using this adapter kit? Curious to see what it looks like.
