Toss me on the list of definitely interested for an 07. Not in a huge hurry, won't have the car till sometime in August, then the temp tags will last a bit longer.

Using Rubber Dip stuff instead of Electrical Tape..

Instead of using electrical tape like I did on v1 of my bracket. I'm going to buy a can of the Rubber Dip stuff from Home Depot and use that on each set of brackets.

I'm in the process of sending out PM's to the following people:

Confirmed/very interested (Depending on price of course):

Talking Updated Production ready photos - Shipping today to sis27 & BeBeep

Hi all,

Both sis27 and BeBeep brackets are shipping out today, I just finished writing the install instructions available from here:
Installation instructions

I have 2 more brackets almost complete, they have to be wet sanded & plasti-dipped

Here are some updated photos, showing the production finished version (pictured here is sis27’s bracket):

Back/side view:


Bottom view, showing how smooth the bend in the Main Plate mount is:


Bracket apart, showing the each piece:


Test mounted on the car – The blemish where plasti-dip is missing has been repaired:


Showing the Main Plate mount attached to my plate - this is my bracket not sis27's:


And finally mounted on the car - again my bracket not sis27's:




Please view this post for pricing information:

Great work!!! Can't wait to get mine. These d@mn gate guards at the base are giving me a rash of $hit for not having a plate mounted. They just threatened to not let me on the base the other day. LOL...

This just made my day. I can't wait to get this on my car, now I can go get her inspected (long story). I'll post pics once I get the brackets in my hands and installed.

This has been a great week for Lucy, she's gonna get a front plate now that's not drilled and is scheduled at the end of the year to spend some time at JDM...

How many are you backlogged on? Or more/less how long till I could have one if I ordered one? Also, not to dis your product at all, but why wouldn't you switch the direction of the bolts so the use of the screwdriver is in the open bottom and the wrnech in the conjested top. But more importantly, you wouldn't see the bolts sticking down. Please take no offense. Regardless, I want one even if you can't make the mod. Let me know... Justin

No offense taken, however no screwdriver is required to mount the bracket to the car, only a Ratchet and a 3/8" socket (If you like you can view the Installation instructions) . The reason for the bolts facing down is two-fold, one the rear bolt is a "guide" and the front bolt would be next to impossible to get to if it was reversed. You do not see the bolts unless you get right down on your knees and peer under the bumper.

RedDragon777 - I can have a bracket boxed up and ready to go, and I can get someone to ship it the week of the 31st, if I don't receive your payment this week.

Here's the list:

The priority I'm going in is this list below, however some people are paying me in advance so I have to give them a bump on the list (I did not ask for advanced payment - so if you pay up in advance the only fare thing I can think of is to bump you up the list)

RedDragon777 - Awaiting payment
sis27 - Going in the mail tomorrow.
BeBeep - Going in the mail tomorrow.
BillR
* packhater - Haven't received PM.
Tony Alonso
adnlyn - PAID
icemant180
PonyUp
scramblr

I should 4-5 more brackets ready to ship by Wednesday or Thursday.
BillR, Tony, adnlyn, icemant180 - Hopefully this week these brackets should go out. I make these in batches as it's faster to drill holes, sand, plast-dip etc.. instead of completing 1 complete bracket.

So in other words, the backlog is about a week, however I have a vacation the beginning of August

Thanks,

First 2 brackets in the mail!

Just an update, the first 2 brackets are in the mail! sis27 & BeBeep let me know when you get them.

Hopefully no one finds these too hard to install. It does take a bit of practice

Thanks,
