    Probably going to have to get OE brace w/ booster setup. U may want to post add in wanted section for brace -- someone probably has one. PM Craig Selvey, he has a lot of parts

    I thought you were inquiring about a shock tower brace for a car with a brake booster? Not sure that one though pretty, will fit?

    My point was, you can make whatever you need, you don't have to search for and buy the big, ugly stock part.

    If you have not already got a booster, it may be easier to find one smaller than the factory unit that will allow for the use of the non power braces. Plus you will not have to replace the brake pedal and bracket.
