Mine got here yesterday, I've painted it twice and bolted it up on the car. I'm not 100% content with the way the paint came out, so I'm gonna scuff it tomorrow and get it one more time. (I used an epoxy urethane paint, same stuff I used on my cage, had to do the same with the cage so I'm not really surprised I have to put a 3rd coat on)
Looks great, the additional top piece I was able to remove was another 8 lbs, so the brace really only puts 4 lbs on the car compared to having nothing, minus the weight I cut off the bottom of the bumper cover, which was probably another 3.
So I think I'm about 1 lb heavier then I was, and the nose will be nice and solid, with a convenient way to mount a fuel cell next season.
Perfect

We are shipping them out JL was the first order. It took a little longer to jig up than Chuck thought. We should have them all out the end of next week.
Thanks for your patience. Due to the support you have shown we are addressing some growing pains with the shop. We would rather ship late and offer a great product than rush stuff out.
