Front Strut Brace?
Hello, I new to this forum. Just purchased a NX200t AWD. I was doing some browsing across the web for available parts. Came across a link for Front Strut Brace on ebay.

14-15 Lexus NX 200t 300h AWD F-Sport Turbo SUV Front Upper Tower Strut Bar Brace
http://www.ebay.com/itm/14-15-Lexus-NX-200t-300h-AWD-F-Sport-Turbo-SUV-Front-Upper-Tower-Strut-Bar-Brace-/131554031456?fits=Model%3ANX200t&hash=item1ea13b3760&vxp=mtr
Just curious if any others had installed a strut brace or this one in particular?
Thanks,

Negative, have not installed it, but in looking at it, I'm skeptical. There is a pivot point on each side, which will essentially make something "rigid" not very rigid. If its not rigid, I'm not sure it can apply equal transfer from each side, thus, how is it really going to help?
The tower brace on my Camaro is 1 solid piece with no moveable parts.
Not discounting it...but I'm skeptical
