Fluid Motorsports Bracing...input needed!
And....the Underpanel made it into production!
The rest are debateable...things are slow but unless everyone wants to start putting up down payments for a reduced price to get these into production. I think that the underpanel will be the winner.
But you never know, people might want to do a group buy for a slightly reduced price....
How is interested in the GB...?

I was getting excited about that 4 point strut tower bar.
Few more questions on the 4-point. Would it be hinged against the firewall similar to the JIC or more like the 09 strut bars? Any idea what material - aluminum, CF, something else? And last do you have any idea what bar thickness you'd be talking about?
More looking at the practical side of this then looks although if you powdercoated it pink I'd probably have to stay away...

Next on my list...
Money is tight R&D money has to be spent very wisely...
2 Months later we are finally able to pull the trigger!
4 Point Strut Bar with master cylinder brace
4 Point lateral brace
Rear Tie brace
Sadly it will be 2-3 Weeks for a Production Prototype
For the rest of the project it is still going to happen this is a $30,000 project so it isn't exactly easy to bring this much into production at once and be able to hold that much inventory.
So we will be doing this in stages, and we have added one more to the bunch, we are incorporating a Rear Trunk Cage as well into the mix which will be stage 2.
Once the prototype is received and approved production begins and there is 6 week turn around time for delivery maybe sooner.
I also have changed my choice for the 4 point, it will not be a traditional brace like JIC, it will be bracing the sidewall and the firewall

I would possibly consider the Front Aluminum Under Panel, Front Ladder Brace 4 Point and the Front Lower Tie Brace.... would like to see photos of the Front Aluminum Under Panel as well... my plastic one is cracked and I have been looking for something more durable....
R-magic makes one but I believe it is made from carbon fiber

This is just the prototype color, they will be a metallic light blue.
If you would like a special color we can arrange that but there will be charge for powdercoating a special color.
Any color you think of we can do.
From what I was told yes, specifically the 6 Point was a noticeable improvement, as well as the two rear braces.
All the Prototypes have been completed, they will now be doing a production run minus the mid 4 point bar. That was pushed back to production constraints.
Available very soon:
Aluminum Underpanel
6 Point Bar
2 Point Lateral bar
2 Point Rear Tie bar
I will be doing a Pre-Orders Shortly and customers will be getting FREE SHIPPING as well as discounted prices. More to come.
They went back to the drawing board and integrated the two pieces together and said the they were much happier with the end result. The one 6 point piece is less money, I think $315ish but when you had the two separate pieces it was around $415.
But what I will be doing is offering 10% off the MSRP and Free Shipping on that specific item most likely.
So $380 Shipped, but that is not for sure, I have to see how much it actually costs to ship this item.
whines all the way home

Great. Also It looks like you have the MS or SE03 front bumper, just checking to see if it mates with the same holes as oe(non MS) bumper, is this correct, you may have just sold me on that...
