front lower control arm brace

[1 srt4 U]

I saw Ford racing and BMR both make a control arm brace for the front. I know some cars like the Shelby's came stock with them but I looked and my GT didnt. Has anyone looked into these at all? What do they mainly help with? Cornering? Or straight 1/4? I am looking for a little more chassis stiffening. Its either between this, or the panhard bar brace.

I have an OEM brace on my 2011. Is your car a base model? My '11 is a premium and also had a strut tower brace.

You could probably find a used OEM brace cheap, if you really want one.

I was thinking about taking mine off, it's got to be worth a few pounds...
