Right now the site is small and sleepy.

It helps a lot out who are at the DIY maintenance place of ownership, but no reason it can't be more than that.

Creativity is always controversial. One person will like it, another will not, but the essence of the exercise is the creative part. I love low riders. Would never own one, but as a career mechanical engineer, I am fascinated by the creativity. I drive my friends nuts, but I can spend all day talking to builders at a show.

I'm not expecting anyone's Bentley will look like these any day soon, but some of the ideas I see from some of you guys is really a good spark.

I understand my friend. Just curious. I know you'll do them when you are ready. Did the fabrication come out the way you wanted?

Yes mate they look fabulous, I'll post a pic tomorrow when I go into the garage.
Got to take the tips to a friends & the car to fabricate a couple of inner pipes due to slight bends, the outer ones are ok just chop a bit off, I'll sort it he has all the pipe benders & welding equipment ... Ill take some pics of the pipes & fitting from under the car ...

When I do it, I don't know if I should get the Gloss black (since my car is black, or get the chrome, so it would stand out.)
