etc, there are a few more threads. Looks like Mikey, DiamondGS4 and a few others have 'em. If they don't respond with an update, might want to PM them.

I've had the front one on my car for quite a while. No problems at all. I had mine powder coated black to match the car, but other than that it's still just like new.

Gotcha
I'm not mechanically inclined and didn't break it when I installed it myself
It is kinda flimsy, considering that you can kind of twist it back and forth.

It does. It's actually one of the few that are out there that does.

As for flimsyness, I don't see how they could snap one. They must of had a defective one or something because mine has never had any problems.
