Default "Top Fuel" style bars now becoming available ek and eg

I am making the first ek hatch "top fuel" style bar tomorrow, mine will be different in many ways.
first, mine will be fully tig welded together, not screw together like the other companies, in turn makes them a hell of a lot stronger, and not just a visual item, something that will actually make your car more rigid..

secondly, mine will be made of steel, not aluminum...

after tomorrow when the first one get tacked together i will be making a jig on wed, and from there send the frist to a guy in flordia... when i get good feedback that everything went in nice and easy, i will be offering these to everyone on here..

if interested in an eg bar i will have the jig made for that also in less than two weeks, and will also be sending that one out to see if it works out as well as planned...

if interested in the ek bar, i will start taking orders as soon as next week im hoping...

now for pricing..

for the first 35 customers or each model, i will be offering them at a discounted price, to further get my name out there, and help get some cash to get this business going...
pricing for the first 35 is 225 plus powdercoating, and shipping costs... (when i get the first one made i will have quotes on both additional costs)
you may also opt to recieve yours raw, unpowdercoated..

pricing after the first 35 will then rise to 290 plus powdercoating and shipping costs..

I will also give the customer an option of getting chromoly tubing versus normale steel, for an additional cost, seeing that chromoly is twice the price of normal dom steel..
the first picture is going to be what the top fuel bars looked like, when they were available....

the pictures from there on are my mounts that i will be using on my bars...
just got the first 4 today, they are cnc'd and dilled 1/16th larger than the 7/16 bolts for your seatbelt bolts, just incase someones cars is a little tweaked out there.... just to give it a little play seeing that they will not be adjustable.

also entertaining the idea of making an optional harness bar with these, lets get some feedback on that...

i will be posting more pics as soon as the first one is made
thanks and hope to be doing business with you soon.
