Hi everyone, and thanks to those who already paid
 I added a  next to the screen names of those who paid (in my list on page five of this thread).I also have two payments without any reference to LT names. So please let me know if you paid and don't see that reflected on the list... Besides that all the mounting hardware came in on Friday. Only the laser cutting place screwed up my plans and didn't get the raw brackets done on Friday as promised. The new ETA is now Monday at noon  So I now sit here and surf on LT instead of working on the brackets over the weekend...  I hope to get them pre-finished during next week and then have them bend by Friday. That would allow me to do the final finishing next weekend and start shipping them out Monday... I'll keep you updated on the progress...

Ok folks, here is another twist to the radar detector deal:
A few people asked me if I could get the bracket anodized in order to protect it from the elements, or simply because they preferred it to be black or whatever color. So I did some research and found a local company that does anodizing. I only talked to them on the phone and tried to explain what it is that I'm trying to get a quote for. Basically they can anodize parts in clear, black, red, blue and gold. The cost is a big mystery at this point. They said that doing all the brackets in one color would be the cheapest. But there are price differences in the different colors. When I start asking for small batches like 5 in red, 7 in blue, 10 in black etc., the price would increase, compared to doing them all in the same color... Sooo, the question is: who would be interested to get their bracket anodized? I would assume that the cost is definitely going to be $10 or less, depending on the number of people interested and the different colors requested. And no, I haven't seen their finished products yet. But I think I will definitely get at least my own bracket done in red. I'd imagine that this would look great with my red interior... I'll send a PM to everyone with this same question, and I'd ask you to reply to me by Friday to let me know if you want your bracket to be anodized and what color you'd prefer. Once I have the number of people interested and colors requested I'll be able to visit that company, show them the bracket, give them the numbers for each color and get a firm quote. I'll assume that you don't want the bracket to be anodized In case I don't hear back from you in time. Sorry for making your life tough and giving you more options...

Great design and execution. Truly makes me want to buy a radar detector, just to use your bracket!
