wanted to share my latest project, made myself a new strutbrace...
made one a long time ago, but that was all steel, now with my new job i have access to large amounts of aluminium so that should save a few pounds!
its also adjustable, just for a little extra strength

its not totally finished yet, just needs some last refinements just for looks only.













and for those who wonder:here's of the outside of my car

 

Nice looking car but where's the brace?

 

uuhm... the first 8 pics maybe...

 

Those red X's are pretty sharp looking red x's. All eight of them.

 

thta's odd... works fine here! i'll try and fix it

 

server is down... fixed the pics another way

what size aluminum rod are you using?

 

Pimptastic!!!

Looks good.

 

uhm when are they forsale...i want one

 

me too

 

im using 20mm aluminium, think its strong enough.
my old one was also 20mm, but this was steel. with that i had no problems...

testing will prove it

this won't be for sale, i wanted something nobody has

 

u suck furb ....we need to talk

 

yeahh too bad... id rather pay a real person 130$ then a company 100$

 

You suck Furb

Your car is quite pimp however.

 

Looks great. But thats not something I'd consider a 'Do It Yourself' project would produce.

 

looks good. now just make a heat shield and fresh air hose for the filter.

 

LOL, that's my next DIY project

im thinking about making more of them...

but dont know if i will be able to make more, but because i make this @ work, i have to be carefull. even with the one i am making right now.
cause if my boss finds out, i could lose my job...

 

its been a while, but the strut is finished

 

nice work. did you get paid to make it?

 

wow. I just drooled all over the keyboard. Nice black FC.

 

sorta, cause i made it @ work

 

I am pretty darn sure that that is the nicest looking strut bar I have ever seen.

 

i must agree thats a damn nice looking strut bar and a damn sexy fc good work man
