Nice looking brackets there.

I had a bash (literally) at making mine - I ended up buying them.
I think I need a bigger vice:D

well done there Andy,
when someone asks you in the future "where did buy your car" you can tell them, with pride "i didn,t buy it , I built it" :cool:

yeah thats the plan im going to try and make everything i can
i love the challenge of trying to figure out how to make bits aswell rather than just buying them and bolting them on also its cutting down on my build funds which are very very limited

thanks Andy

i know what you mean about limited build funds, ask Ash G what i was like at the Stoneleigh kit car show :o Ash was impressed with my haggling skills or as i refer to being a tight git :D
(full set of lights except the headlights for my car i got for £26 including bulbs :o )

cheers

I can confirm he is a tight git...:rolleyes:

Well done, they look nice, i did mine the same in the vice and they turned out fine. Only thing is i don't believe you'll get your 12mm bolts through them holes..;)

Lets see if you can make the "front lower wishbone plate" on your own though, i tried and i failed.
