Default Convertible tunnel brace

Does anybody make a tunnel brace to replace the stock one that now hits my kooks catted y-pipe. I tried cutting out a section but it's still close enough to hit it.

SLP makes one but I could never get it to fit, it bound
up with the I-pipe instead (as well as being mis-built
so badly that no more than 3 of the 4 bolts would fit
at any time). I threw it in the trash as the end to my
dealings with SLP. It was a pretty stupid, spindly to the
point of ineffective, little weldment.

What you really want is some diamond type SFCs I
think. I did notice a little more body flex with the
stamping gone (this is the one from trans Xmember
to floor pan, right?). Thought about stick-building
something too, but haven't gotten around to that.

Yeah that's the one! I don't know how much more I could cut out of it to make it not hit on it and still have the crossmember be of some support.
