Brake & Clutch Master Cylinder Braces

Hey Guys,
With my issue of the flex in the firewall with my HD clutch, I have had a mate make me up braces for the brake and clutch master cylinders. They are an alloy unit and look the goods, and he has informed me that he has a template now and will make more if there is a need for them. Pics are below, and I will endevour to install them on the weekend and update pics...
Alex

    Any details on price? I was looking at these with my brake upgrade, but struggled to find much actually for sale.

    he said that he would sell them for $150 each...
     
    In saying that, i know that you can pay 60-80 for the cheap ebay ones that dont fit most of the time, and for a tubular design too.
     
    He has an mr2 that he based these off so I have seen it mounted and fitted...

    ABS or non ABS?  If I remember correctly there is a difference?

    ^^^ ah yeah this is true, I will try and find out what he actually modelled these off, and try and get back to you guys asap... in the meantime, to check out the other work he does, you can visit his FB page - https://www.facebook.com/#!/ATPerformance I know ill most likely get smashed for advertising him on here, but he is one guy doing great fabrication work for the motoring community...

    Re brake M/C stoppers:
    Not straightforward to fit these to an ABS model, mainly because the pipes tend to be in the way, and I found that the cheap Ebay tubular ones are mostly for non-ABS.
     
    My car has the early ABS and I made my own.
    When I first fitted it I was skeptical as to whether it would actually do anything but found that it did firm up the brake pedal lightly, so definitely worth fitting.

    ok, I have been told that these ones have been made with the ABS setup in the car, I have a non-abs car so will see how they fit in that on the weekend hopefully and get back to you guys...

    OK, I have quickly mounted these up and they fit on the non-ABS brake master cylinder setup too... 
     
    Nice and easy to fit, as they utilise the bolt holes already there...

    They look good Alex, I'd be keen on some once we've seen them on an ABS car.
