CF sway bar clamp. this with titanium bolts and cf backing plate saves 5 oz. per side.

RICH you are killing me!!! These products look GLORIOUS!!!

So when do you plan on doing mass production? I REALLY want that CF Undertray with Oil drain door, side skirts, rear clam lid, fuel door...etc...the list just keeps growing with the quality of work you are doing.
