2007 GT Convertibles have stock A-Arm brace

I just purchased a lower A-Arm brace for my 2007 GT Premium Convertible. But, when I got under there to put in on, to my surprise, I found out it already had one stock from the factory My friend just got an 06, so I sold it to him, and we'll put it on his instead. Don't know about the coupe, but for the Verts, save your money and don't order a lower A-Arm brace if you have a 2007.

It connects the lower A-Arms to stiffen the car, just like a strut tower brace connects the strut towers. The 2007's however benefit from using the same platform and stiffening that the GT500 uses, and a stock lower A-Arm brace is one of those benefits. I just didn't know that until I was under the car.
