Default Braces for your DC header!

For anyone getting the DC header I recommend making some brackets to brace the header like the factory one is braced. If you don't I'm sure it will eventually crack.

Here is what I did...

Someone should release a package that includes 2 antifoulers, 1 already drilled, and a set of well fitted brackets. Sell it for $15 - $20 shipped, and I'm sure people would pay for the conveince of not having to hunt down brackets that will fit and not having to drill out one of the antifoulers. But, that's just a thought. Nonetheless, thanks for the tip.
