It is overlapping the tower-to-firewall brace on the side of the strut tower. It makes for a clean look, but functionally I don't think it provides squat except a checkbox marked for NHTSA when it comes to convertibles. Better to center the load around the top of the strut tower.

I actually think the best option someone could come up with is a stiffer, sleeker 3-point that mounts around the top of the towers, replaces the tower-to-firewall braces and has the crossbar more rearward where there is a little more room to elevate for better clearance of some blowers and intakes.
