It's been covered many times man.
Basically I'll start by saying a rear sway bar will do much more for you handling wise.
That being the case...
http://www.CTMotorsport.com
Has Whiteline rear sway bar & a front tower brace. I have both...
Hoebag will tell you to get a Solara one and modify it so it fits.
Someone else will then chime in to tell you it fits anyways, don't worry if it bangs.
Next someone will ask about a turbo, to which 5 other new members will jump on only to be shot down when we call them NEWBIES & them it's not feasable on our cars unless you want to PAY someone to learn how to reprogram a lexus computer, or rebuild either 3vz or 1mz, depending on what you have, then swap to a Camry ecu.
Then I'll post links to Toyota Nation, or say something about Tony the Tiger
At which point I call on MCE to post what all he's done to his ES because he's our man. (up for sale if anyone wants dibs!)
Finally someone will ask a question about wiring a radio that has been covered IN DETAIL in other posts if you'll just use the *U**I** SEARCH BUTTON!!!
Sorry if I left anything, and/or anyone out of the process flow.

It was all in good humor about how we go around in circles like crazy Lex 
Which is why I said, "Has Whiteline rear sway bar & a front tower brace."
BTW you can get them on Ebay, but they're not very good. Looks only. Half of them will simply bow up and not do much under stress. haha!
he asked about a strut tower brace, not a sway bar
