[Shotimes] RE: Re: GM Front Strut Tower Bar/Brace

Gil:
Adam has been selling his kit on Ebay for some time. It comes and goes. I
don't know where else to buy it? Maybe someone one list has his E-mail? I
have his version and like it a lot. Uses stock hood struts and after they
are relocated it looks completely stock. I think it holds the hood further
open than the struts do in the stock location.

Sergio Hello!
 Don't hear much from you anymore. The GM brace is used on a number of cars.
Part number #12456148. Gm keeps raising the price on this! It started out at
$12 and now it's $18.69. The listing says this:

 DESCRIPTION: STRUT BAR KIT(ONE BAR KIT ONLY)
For use on 1999 - 2002 Chevrolet Monte Carlo; 2000 - 2002 Chevrolet Impala;
1997 - 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix. These are production Buick strut tower
braces designed to minimize body flex. The kit includes ONE strut tower
braces, hardware. (THE HIGH PERFORMANCE CATALOG IS INCORRECT) If you want
the kit that includes two of these braces it is part number 12498648

his name.  His kits used the 300zx struts.  Adam Varneys kit used the stock
hood sturts.
