Nice work Evan. Looks awsome. You gonna get them powdercoated??
Here are some pics of the almost complete left side bracket.
Im proud to say this was all done by hand. I used our makeshift brake (mounted in out hydraulic press at work) to make the bends, then cut out the basic shape with the cutoff wheel. After that the fine tuning and edging was done with files and sandpaper. The results speak for themselves :)
Disregard the nuts holding the bolts on, its just for mock up. Those bolts will be threaded into the seat.

Since I like to stick to the DIY theme Im going to shoot them with the gun in our spraybooth in the shop.

Thanks for getting those parts off for me man. Now I can finally install my intake manifold :)
NP man Ill get that DIY back up at some point lol Ive been sooo lazy!
So a little update for you guys leading up to a doozie of a post later tonight ....
I decided I didnt like the gloss finish on my carbon inserts so I wetsanded them and cleared them with some flat clear spray to give them that dry carbon look. The Memoryfab bucket will also be getting this treatment when the new brackets are ready!
So tuesday night I took a ride down to the CT shore to meet up with Allmotordan to pick up these stoptech brakes for a killer deal. The calipers are going to be refinished in silver :thumbup:
Then last night I got my package from the FEEL's Sugito branch... only had to wait about a week and a half from putting the order through to when it arrived... <3 FEEL's :hugs:
wow....nice cap, and nice brakes. Two more super clean mods for the cleanest of the clean.

Thanks for the props guys! Still need stainless brake lines before I can install the brakes but in the meantime Im going to have them powdercoated in silver. Probably going to leave the logo off for a super clean look :)
