The welds are very good on this bar, but will be pretty much flawless on the production models... This was just some fitment testing we were doing so I figured I'd share it with everyone... 


NOTE: The struts are bolted in and the bar is just kinda sitting on top for the pics... I just wanted to give everyone an idea of what we're working with here... Oh and as I said earlier, they are pretty light too...

I have not began to duct... Ill finish the rest after I finish the bodywork.
If people want these I can knock out a few dozen, Id just need someone to show up at my shop and leave their stock fc for a few days They would be larger and connect to the cross member
btw Just Imagine a f-117 turned upside down, I think thats about what Its going to look like when Im finished.

I dont think its ok for me to jack this thread so 13b4me needs to tell me whats what's what. this is his thread about his products, I only chimed in to toot my own ego.
So please dont respond to this unless 13b4me gives it his OK.
with that said here i go jacking the thread...
Ill be out of school in a couple weeks and If someone local is willing to leave me their stock car (i do have a legitimate shop) for a couple days Id be more than happy to. Ideally (would need to be a group of 10 or so) I could just make a template and send it to shineauto and they could make one out of their FRP.
My only options now for materials would be sheet metal, lexan, fiberglass, or assuming i can find the rolls CF.
HOWEVER, I dont know If i can make one that Bolts up... i think it will for the most part, mine is a combination of nutserts, welding, and uclips + screws.
Hey no problem here... 
If you already have a design that works well, then that's one less thing on my own plate to deal with... In fact, I would be interested in one myself if the price is right... Especially something lightweight like FRP, but sheetmetal would be fine too... As long as it would work with a relocated radiator and FMIC you can count me in...

The design is the easy part, it gets tricky when people start getting creative on their cooler placement. as there is almost an infantine range of dimensions to take into account (bumper no bumper, stock radiator or aftermarket, where and what size is the fmic).
Honestly though Its been so long since Ive seen the bottom side of a stock fc that Im not sure how or what Id need to do. but the basics would be the same
But I could easily make a fitted nose pan that spans from the front bumper back to the Frame rails where they become parallel to the ground next to the transmition.

My dad had to do some work to his house before summer, but he's about done, and we'll be back on track... I had to get some stuff squared away with my own car as well... Sorry to keep everyone waiting, but it's hard to just jump right into something like this without any complications or obstacles... Fortunately they aren't relating to the product, but to outside circumstances...
i would be intrested in buying any of the following items FRONT OR REAR STRUT BARS,SMALL ROLL CAGE FOR BEHIND THE SEATS,REAR SUBFRAME,BELLY PAN,MAYBE A CUSTOM BUMPER RENFORSMENT FOR THOSE OF US WHO HAD TO REMOVE THE STOCK ONE TO FIT A BODY KIT OR INTERCOOLER,,CAMBER ADJUSTMENT PLATES......
Make Some Money!!
Ive been reading your threads, and yes FC owners are cheap, the rich ones all own an FD, But they are still car owners!! some parts for the Fc arent necissarily hard to find but are expensive. I mean to mod a civic is like 10 times cheaper. I think youll ake alot of money if you just liik for the most in demand parts (cold air, exhaust, turbo parts) and ofer them for lower prices. I mean a high flow k+n or HKS cold air for an FC is like $160. Even ofering a good cold air box at $80 to $100wold bring A TON of buisns.
I own an FC, and yes, i am poor, but i want the best for my baby and if ther was a small company ofering these thins specally made and designd for an FC you would have ALL of my buisness
