these are $150 shipped for the b13, i would to make a set for the b14 and p10 but i dont have access to either so that i can make them.
what about the p11
I'd definetly buy a set and I'm sure I can find someone in your area for prototyping both the p10 and p11. what area exactly are you in?
please update about when this is gonna start if it is... my car is going to the shop the last week of january to make these as well as other braces... if this doesnt go on, i will start a gb for them
Actually, I thought you meant you installed the fender braces on a B14. I guess not, considering later in the thread you asked to be a guniea pig for them. My bad.
haha, no problem. His trunk brace actually does works pretty well though.
It looks like there is a greater demand for B14 fender braces then B13? I'd test fit one, but I would like to be sure that the brace can be reasonably modified to fit a B14. Here is a pic of the trunk brace.

I need a set for my B13, can I weld them in? I think someone mentioned that they did that earlier. THX.
You can only weld them in at the front rail.
You cannot weld them in at the door hinges, because the SFB (Stephens Fender Brace) goes over the hinges, not under them. If it went under the hinges the doors would not fit properly.

Close up of SFB and hinges.
Close up of welds and bolts permanently fastening the SFB to the front rail.
Once again, I love the way everything lines up and you can clearly see how the front end is now boxed-in. Plus, we still have plans to foam in that front rail (side rails, and A-B-C pillars).
Another angle on the "boxed-in" front end.

Did you end up making these for a P10 by chance? If not I might have a go at it with my new welder (not new to welding though).

i havent had a chance to make these for a p10 yet, if i could get someone to let me use their car for an afternoon that i would be able to start making these for the p10. if anyone does end up letting me use there car i will make a set for them for just the price of materials.
