I have been installing a new stereo setup in my Q and have the entire trunk removed. I am converting my trunk to open via struts instead of the torsion rods. The rods are in the way of my subs being installed under my rear deck. So I thought I might fab up a strut tower brace for the rear and use the mounting points for the pivot point of the new trunk struts.

any thoughts?

All FGY33 have them, and there is a kind of brace on the G50.

Read about Paul's attempt to convert the FGY33 brace for use on a G50.

I am not out yet. I have a design in mind that is a hybrid design of Squeefoo's and mine.

Basically You can use the inexpensive FGY33 shock tower hats and the threads are on the sides of the bar, not in the middle like the OEM FGY33 design.

I just need someone to make it for less than $100 a pop.
