I also figure this is more cosmetic than necessary on the coupe, but couldn't put one on my 2010 Camaro- it wasn't drilled and tapped for it.

So now (if the rain clears back East) that GM Parts Guy is gonna hook me up. Maybe by the weekend...?

I have a GM Performance and Lowering kit waiting in my garage for next Spring when I will install it and start road course racing. The brace looks great and sure has hell isn't going to hurt handling performance. And, at 2.6 lbs. its like its not even there!

You may have to go to a dealership and have them order the 2 bolts. Don't be surprised if they're ungodly expensive for bolts.

According to my guy, it's this. I know it says "belt tensioner bolt" but he says it is the one needed for the brace. Just remember to get 2 of them.
