Default Strut Brace no carpet mod?

I have searched but cannot find what i want.

Any help appreciated.

I have a Heigo, and it fits under the carpet.

Heigo was the OEM Tequipment strut brace, I understand they are quite pricey now.

Schnell tower brace from Vertex Auto good stuff for only 109 about a year ago. Fits under nicely.

OMP. I didn't even know it was there for the first 2 years until I was poking around for something else.

Pretty blue

My Brey-Krause stainless strut bar fits completely underneath.

Heigo made the factory 964 & 993 RS ones as well. These are now stupid expensive at $887 (what the hell is Porsche thinking here??)

I'll have a clone of these available here very soon.

the stock RS fits perfect under the carpet. Just mount the brackets so that the bar is more orientated towards the fuel tank.

Any installed pics of the TRG one? I see it on the website but the pic is small.
