Default Lightweight front strut brace

I was going to order on of the OEM Boss 302 Style Strut braces from AM, I got one of those Store wide coupon emails this morning $179.99 -$15

But then....

I saw those GT take offs on the roush ebay store for $100,,, that is tempting,,, but they are scuffed, they say GT on them and I am not 100% sure they fit... I suppose I could rattle can it black? I don't have any fancy stuff under my hood anyways.

What to what to do,, Save $65,,, hmmm "All Sales Are Finale" ooo scary...

There are alot of great looking options my other choice was the Scott Drake brace. I ended up getting the Ford one to keep a stock look and figured it wasn't too heavy since its aluminum. My thought on the lighter ones is that they are single bars, I'm not sure how well they perform. But then again a 1mm thicker sway bar can help alot in cornering.

Will that Scott Drake Fit the 2011+? It doesn't really say, the price is sure right!

I was thinking of going with an Aluminum Strut brace to save on weight, if I went with a steel one, I would go with one I know is made in the USA, most don't say one way or the other, but one I checked on previously was "Believed to be sourced out of China" according to the Vendor.
