H-Brace on EBay
I ordered one of those $70.00 lower front H-Braces from EBay. Installed it today, it went on the car with no problems, fit perfectly. Maybe it's just wishful thinking, but I think it made a difference.

Here is a link to a number of GS items. As luck would have it, the seller I purchased from (motor_ware) doesn't have anything else for sale right now.

Here's the latest listing. Getting photos of the one I installed isn't possible right now. I am still astounded at the difference it made. I have to wonder if adding the shock tower braces help as much. Do the front braces allow use of the engine cover?
Thanks

Scroll down on this link, as it's a photo of the TRD link. The one I bought is pretty much the same item and goes in the same place. There is a stock one on the car now that's made of stamped steel and steel tubing that the aluminum one replaces. The difference in the car with the new brace is surprising.

I really didn’t expect much when installing this brace due to the fact that it replaces a stock one on the car now. I was very surprised at the difference it made in front end rigidity. Someone did their homework on the H-Brace, it’s a worthwhile investment. I didn't notice any affect on ride quality, the car corners better and feels more solid at even moderate speeds.
