Is there more than one bracket? BHR only offers one pre-installed. I got mine from race roots.

Hey brother, I went with a Koyo OEM replacement due to the lifetime warranty. The Koyo aluminum and Mishimoto both have only one year warranties and fitment issues and the BHR and Mazmart on were both $500.00+ and even with all the hot weather driving my OEM never gave me any problems.

Oh, I thought BHR sold the bracket as well.

I might be remembering incorrectly, but CRH gave me a reason why they dont. I would have gone with theirs if they had one for a similar price. I do remember him saying they only use new pedals as well... so that drove the price up as well. Was more than I was wanting to spend.

Going to colorado with some friends for a few days. Going to be camping a couple days and staying in a hotel for a night or 2 to hit up some of the local breweries. Really looking forward to going to the oskar blues brewery.

only 40 minutes of class left... going to fill the tank as soon as I'm out.

Hoping it wont be too cold for the camping portion. We're going to be in the boulder area so it shouldn't be too bad.

Tank is full... now I just need a second person to get it in. Hopefully my girlfriend has time once she's done with class before she has to go to work.

Got rid of the uber shitty rotary FX crap yellow fogs and bucked out for some HOEN yellows. Best $ I have spent thus far. Shitty pic but they look great in person.

I think my g/f is going to do it for me, but I'm definitely going to have to have someone video one of the flames when using nitrous... it's pretty crazy how huge they have to be.

While I was driving around a camry with the license plate "haxxor" tried to race me. I filled my tank earlier. He must have been upset because once we got to the next light, I was in the turn lane, there was an M3 next to me and the camry was in the next lane. As soon as the light turned green for them, the camry took off while the M3 seemed to be driving normally. The camry changed lanes shortly after and threw on his hazards. Guess he felt better after that.

That sounds fun... where to?

I got my g/f to do a quick video but my camera hated the lighting so it kind of sucks... I probably need to get one of you guys to ride/video while someone else drives or something if I want a better video. My g/f described it as a fireball though it just looks like a flash in the video...

Okay people, I would like to represent a bit at the statewide meet. Keep in mind, I am no graphic designer. I would like a decent size (maybe 12") all put in the same location for uniformity. I am open for opinions as far as color, etc but if it turns into a cluster **** then I will just get what I want Grunge and I are pretty set on what we have in mind but I would like everyone's opinions.

I like that idea! The only color I can think of is maybe a metallic silver or something like that... something that would go good on any color....

Yeah, we figured Sunlight Silver would be a good match but he can do VR, WB, etc. etc.
