hey, check out the stainless strut bar I fabricated this weekend:

soo much work, now I have to build one for Kristal's Xb.

 

looks clean...

how long did it take u to make that? how much does it weigh?

u should seriously start ur own shop...who knows..randode racing might take off...

if u want...i'll be getting some hookup to those blue HID lightbulbs....my buddy and i will be selling them online soon...i'm working on some webworks at the moment...price and selection are yet to be determined....

but it'll be cheap...and i'll offer it even cheaper to scionlife members soon...i'll keep u updated if interested.

 

looks really good.. how long did it take for you to make that one?

OT: btw, why is your engine cover grey? mine's black, don't know why this stood out to me all of the sudden...

 

oooohh i like it...looks very clean and the welds look good from what i can see.
good job. what did you use to make the curved cuts above the strut tower?
did i say that it looks good and its clean?
very nice.

he painted it.

 

that bar took like 5 hours to make. It isnt exactly light since its stainless and .120" wall square tubing. My plasma cutter will not cut 3/16" material so i had to nibble away at it on the chop saw, then grind to the line. It took forever. Im going to make a steel template for the next one, and have my buddy cut it with his plasma.

The engine cover and a few other pieces have been painted "cast grey"

 

that's painted??! damn, that looks really nice, maybe I'll check up the old posts and do it myself... but before anything I need to figure/find out about a replacement oil dipstick... that plastic thing just has to go...

 

Dude very nice strut bar, I love to see stuff fabricated. You always love your car more when the parts you have are made by your own two hands. Once again nice strut bar.
