FC Master Cylinder Brace

Chances are what I'll do is stock them all in Red, but if someone has a special request I'll do what I can to help them. Right now I'm just wrapping up testing and waiting for more material to come in.

Not yet, I still need to update and run the new programs once the material is in stock. One way or another I'll at least be doing a small run of them.
I was not aware of that, thanks for sharing. Does the oxide layer inhibit adhesion to a certain degree?

Now in the engine bay of a car its obviously not as harsh as the salt water environment of a boat so I dont think its as big a issue, but if you also introduce stainless hardware holding alum parts you will have a issue as well so best to cover all your bases.

I dont do powder, I am just going off what 3 different PC told me. So now when I get custom parts made in alum for my customers boats I dont have them made in anodize. Funny thing is you would think it was better.

its funny, i powder coat things all the time, aluminum, iron, steel, etc, and ive never had a problem coating over the top of anodized material, but i also always give it a once over with the glass bead media, just for adhesion purposes, havent heard a complaint yet.
but hey, if you cant do non-anodized, np, ill just blast it and pc it anyways, not like its a very well seen part anyways lol
either way, i am going to buy 1, no matter what. you have 1 guaranteed sold brace

I was going to suggest that if you make two solid cut outs on each side (sort of similar to what you sketched up) basically making the part an H shape with a lip around it. Does that make sense? If not oh well.
95 seems a bit high, but after seeing that red one, holy ****. That's sex right there. Make me a dark blue one.

Sorry for the lack of updates, I've been running around doing some leg work.
I've now done a test fit on the following:
S4 NA Vert
S4 Turbo Coupe
S5 NA Coupe
S5 Turbo Coupe
So I'm expecting there should be no fitment issues between any of the USDM years/models.
Material is now at the shop for a new batch as soon as time allows. I'll be putting the prototypes up for sale shortly at a discount. I'll let you guys know once that is ready. I'm aiming to have the first production batch ready in 2 weeks, although right new we are backed up working on rear diff mounts, dtss bushings and the planning stage of a front diff mount as well as working on some new shift *****.
