I had the 08 without one and was really wanting one. This 2011 that I got does not have one. Dealer told me that I had to have 19's in order have this.
I laughed and they said with 19 it is harder 2 steer and you needed more
stability with the wider tires.
Since buying it I asked 4 it and they told me "everyting or anything
is @ dealer cost! So I wanted a strut tower brace and etc;
So here I am waiting they said $100 4 it but what about it ,is this my price?
In a nut, My car has no strut tower brace, I know every stiffing of the
chassis will make it better.
What does the census say??

I have a 2010 and thought about installing the 2011 brace. My dealer had no idea if it would fit or not and also told me the 2010 brace was for cars with 19 inch wheels.
It comes that way from the factory but fits just fine. I got mine (a 2010), at a discount, for about $120. The price you were quoted is probably cost.
