Default Solid motor mounts Part 2

As a few of you have seen i made some solid motor mounts for my car and a buddies. well another friend of mine wanted some too. As seeing as how i am now addicted to reducing my race weight i decided to make these out of aluminum.
The first pic is of the steel ones i made a while bacl and the second is of the aluminum ones i made last night. i didn't that the aluminum ones looked a little weaker (especialy it being aluminum) so i took one of the sets and welded asome reinforcement plates on the side. after i did that i then didn't like how bulky they looked so i left one set just like they were. i figure i'll put the weaker (lighter ) set in my car and the other in his. So if mine break i can just weld them back up. Wouldn't wanna put something faulty in someone elses car. I'll get a pic of the "reinforced" mounts here in a little bit.
