rotary works studs and crashbars(quick question)

im assuming that this is the right section to post this up.

just recently ive been look through vender's and found rotary works saw that they offer titanium stud kits for a nice price. got me thinking as to the quality of there products and if these stud kits actually hold the engine together. basically im asking if any one has used them.

then my other question is that im planing on doing a vmount set up and and realized that i prolly would have to take the bumper absorber off. you kno that black piece that is actually a bumper?
i read that one would have to go about building a crash bar for safety in case of an accident .
a crash bar is basically a fabricated bumper absorber. i m curious if any of you have heard of this if there is another name for it. i want to do some research

I used studs a several years ago that came from Australia, which was before the US companies started copying them. I don't really think they are worth it unless you are going with the over-sized ones which require machining.

No need to screw around with the bumper for a V mount setup

so
to machine the 3-4 holes do i have to take it to a specialty machine shop or any run of the mill shop can do this?
curious cause i dont want to waste perfectly good irons
also i still would like to know more about crash bars because my boy has a front mount and he had to take off his bumper support.
thanks

Any competent machine shop can do the work if you go with the over-sized studs. I would suggest skipping this unless you have a reason for needing them.
