You wanna know the secret? We genuinely love what we're doing! Every single team member takes pride in everything that we create and the fact that you guys are so supportive and encouraging just fuels the fire.

Others will come and go, but you can count on us to keep this party going!

In fact, as a thank you, if this post gets 10 thanks before Chase gets into work tomorrow, I'll post a particularly embarrassing photo of him.

@GrimmSpeed, do you guys carry the red paint color used for the red strut bar. I would like the option to paint the other two OEM bars that make up the other sides of the triangle. I saw this on your website, is this close to being the same color chosen?

Matt nailed it in his response to you. I just wanted to add that if you do end up just wrapping the sheath around the AC line, you might try also wrapping a single ziptie around that sheath only, connected to nothing else, just as an extra layer of protection directly underneath the strut tower brace. It is super-overkill, but that's how I like to do things

Just for the record, when I got in this morning there were only 9!!! Somehow I doubt that will keep Matt from doing whatever he is going to do...

We don't, because it's wrinkle red powdercoated (same finish you see on Ferrari valve covers, etc). That paint is non-textured, and cherry blossom red (closer to a pink). HOWEVER, I'll do some checking, but I am fairly positive that VHT makes a wrinkle red spray paint that matches nearly perfect.

LAST DAY TO GET IN ON THE GROUP BUY PEOPLE! DON'T MISS YOUR CHANCE TO GET IN AT THIS RIDICULOUS PRICE!!!

I'm in for the group buy!

By the way, I work with time zones often in my day job (global company, scheduling and coordination) and since it's currently daylight savings time, it's CDT. CST would be an hour off of what you're aiming for. Or for simplicity's sake CT would be fine. Google "Time in [wherever you are]" and it will come back with CDT.

I am not 100% positive. I know what projects I'm working on next, but if they do not produce positive results we won't do them. I choose to remain semi-secretive at this point

That is great information to know, thank you very much! We usually just combat that by being extremely lenient, which I can see in our future I've got you added to the list right now!

Hey I just remembered today was the last day and its still today so can I get one in black? I said red before but black looks sweet now that I see the finished product.

Also, I would like to combo this with the hood strut and master cylinder brace. Can you let me know if I can get a deal on this when you PM me for payment?
