Great looking brackets. Definitely a nice BBK to have front and rear with OEM components. How does the master cylinder hold up to the larger and more numerous pistons?

i agree the brackets look great and that was my immediate thought, i wonder if the BMC is going nuts over this.

how much did the whole BBK/brackets set you back?

Brake booster is holding up just fine no issues and been runing them for about 6 months. I did do so e research and seems like there is no other upgrade for this..

ok thats insane,although those are nice brackets there isnt much to them. After a mockup of a template that will hold them, CNC'ing them shouldnt cost you $2k even with the programming for the CAD program. Labor IMHO is also really high. they look great though.
