I can't remember what Mikey914 said about those of us that needed only one instead of a set. I think it was something to the effect that it wouldn't be much cheaper than buying a set, but I could be wrong. Anyway, I'll pop for a set if that's the only way they're going to be offered.

This journey, and I call it that because it has really evolved from just buying some molds and making some part has become a complete program now. We have been able to improve durability, and will make our ultralight version and a reinforced version , as well as a balsa GT version.

We are changing materials on all of our fiberglass products to a more durable version.

Those of you that have known me for awhile know, I can't just make a product. I strive to make the best possible product.

The new Haltbar panels are significantly an improvement.
This is why this has drawn out longer. We are also setting up a testbed to prove that they are actually a better product.

More to follow soon. I'm trying to get this done this weekend.

It’s always amazed me how you could have a full time job taking you all over the country and manage to produce excellent parts often better than original for our little cars. Thanks!

I can make them, just working out pricing on these. Costs have gone up and I have to machine the mounts. I just about have the mounts done and will have pricing on these in about 10 days.
