Ya, way too damn expensive!! :???: If I was buildin' the Queen Mary of Xmods maybe I'd pay $40 for those, but until I get the Sanford and Son Edition Xmod done first, I'll be stickin' to the plastic ones.

i could produce those for 5 bux RWD or 10 AWD out of aluminum, and 12 bux RWD or 24 AWD out of titanium. but shit if i make a cnc program i could probably offer them for like half that, just cuse machine time would be like 1 min a piece compared to 15-20 doing it manually. if yous guys are interested i just might pursue doing so. i made some aluminum ones for mine and they work great, the the titanium really is the strongest.

i have autocad and mastercam, i work in a cnc machine shop, so those items were freebies for me, i dont know when i can get around to doing them it would have to be on a weekend, and right now were kinda swamped with work, ive been working 11 hour days, so im using my weekends to relax. ill draw up the plans and shit on my own computer, give me a few weeks till things slow down again. then ill make em. besides and as for making samples i guarentee my parts to be within 1/1000 of an inch of the specs. but again it will be a few weeks till things slow down, so patience my friends
