I have considered offering the brackets in a dzus version but they are easy to install so I opted out.

I have more models available than the website shows. I am slow about keeping it updated. I also make 68 Hemi dart seat brackets, working on motor plates, have aluminum carriage bolts, fender rods.

Nice looking stuff. Thanks for making those parts. I might get a set for the Duster project that I'm working on.

I agree. I have a set for my race car.

On top of that, I met Jeff at the Indy show where I bought my brackets. Very pleasant to deal with.

Ordered some for my AAR project last night. I'll probably glue some mounts to the fiberglass bumper and adapt them. Looks like a nice product. Mike

I have your 1/8” fronts, I think I will need your 3/8” for my steel rear bumper.

Thanks for the reply back.

Just a follow up on this topic. Save your money do NOT buy the Alsa shkit. The spray nozzles on cans are terrible and couldn't find any other nozzle that would fit can. Drips/spits/droplets/3 streams in fan pattern etc come out and ruin the finish. I spent about 4 days getting my fiberglass bumper smoothed up and ready to paint. The base black went on poorly but hoped the clear would shine/smooth it up some,,it didn't. THEN,,I started searching the web for reviews on it,,,all reviews had the same experience I did. Should have looked at reviews BEFORE I bought it!! The Alsa stuff is just like all the other 'spray chrome' stuff...pretty much junk.

Thank you Chapper for the real life review. You saved me some grief it sounds like.

Steven tried some spray chrome on my front bumper.... believe it was from Eastwood Rod. General consensus was that it was most definitely “silver”.

Update on Alsa Killer Chrome. After my failed attempt with the Alsa stuff, I cleaned everything off with laquer thinner and started over. Got the bumper smoothed up and under primer again. I then sprayed it with Rustolem gloss black enamel. 1-2 dry 'tack coats' then wetter coat with the final coat WET and shiny smooth. Let it dry good for a few days and then put the Killer Chrome on with several VERY LIGHT passes. I doesn't take much of it to cover the black. I found there is no need to pay $150.00+ for their 'kit'. Just buy the 1 can of Killer Chrome and use cheaper paint for the base. It didn't turn out too bad. Looks more like an older real chrome bumper. Don't know how durable it will be without clear over it, but will find out.

KC-KC-101 is the number on the can. Price on their website is $49.99. There is plenty in one can to do 1 bumper,,probably enough for 2. I had some left in can but did several test sprays first.
