I'll take some better pictures of it tomorrow for you but basically the we just fabricated it to work without them. The brace holes are recessed into the brace as well so the nut and washers soon to be stainless will not be able to move and sit flush. The fire wall was up in the air for a a minute but I wanted to do this once and that's it so we just stuck to what we knew wouldn't have issues.

Sweet cause that is something that I think would help the bay a lot if they were gone! And it doesn't seem to hard to take off

Thats what we are trying for, do everything once and as best we can so we will not have to do it again lol!

The hard part isnt taking them off it is adding the structural integrity back to the strut towers after you remove them. Thats why we custom made the Strut tower brace.

We made it so it will fit a Shouldered nut or Nice stainless washer and nut.

That's sweet. Wish I had the skills to make something like that.
