But the bend will be sharp, these were bent in a vice by moi  ...The final ones  will be like bent with a big ass sheet bender machine, the piece will be powder coated and its all for $10 ...
Cool.

Hmmm very interesting. What exactually are you thinking about using them for??

Could you mount a set of PIAA lights to them!?!?!
How cool would that be?

They should take extra lights no problem ... just make sure you have the bracket positioned and fitted with the lights such that they dont get too close to the T/s's ... they are scrap pieces I found ... the problem is the bend ... I want a sharp 90 instead of that wide 90 I got, so we'll have to get it done at a machine/sheet metal shop ... and they only go new metal, cant take shaZam! off the scrap yard, the contaminants will ruin the tools/machines. So it has to be made a fresh and I'll use new steel and crank it out.
Cool.
