Vert cars and M2s have braces there, HOWEVER, they extend past the radiator area and connect with the body and shock towers. Parts that just brace the radiator area I don't see as worth it. FWIW CPM Japan also makes that front brace. Johnny250 has it, and said he didn't notice any difference.
**ponder** wonder if the OEM vert brace then would fit into a coupe? Off again I go to RealOEM! lol
