Those look Awesome!

how much time do you have in them? what do you feel you are worth per hour? what was the cost of the parts?
that should get you close to what you should charge.

they look really cool , but I am not a high roller, so I don't have a gauge on what custom work/parts would be worth...

FYI, we are skating on the edge of forum rules. I'll leave this open for the time being as long as this does not become a For Sale or I Want To Buy thread. Also for everyone, do NOT PM the original poster to buy these as PM Sales are not allowed.

Please keep this on topic.

Cool product. I also am not a high roller. If I were, I believe $200 would be fair. How much time do you have in a set?

Have you considered doing this on an exchange basis or consider accepting via UPS; stamping holes & retuning to sender type arrangement?

gunslingerfab · 09-01-2015, 10:23 PM

Thank you!

i have about 6 hours work in the set, it is very critical to get the metal as close to perfect as possible before flaring the holes.

I would love to answer all your questions however the admins made it very clear i am not to conduct business on this side of the forum so i ask that you visit my hood brace post in the classifieds or email gunslingerfabrication@Gmail.com for any further concerns or questions. I love the page and don't want to violate their policies

I think Chief Rocka already does these, he's been making them for awhile.

My concern would be over functionality. To the best of my understanding these battles are designed to keep air flowing through the radiator with the hood shut. The holes would disrupt that air flow and may effect engine temperatures.

The holes would disrupt that air flow as long as the grill is unobstructed I dont think it should be an issue, however if anyone would spend money on something frivolous like this I hope they would invest in an aluminum radiator first anyway lol
