Count me in for one if you decide make a second batch. It looks like a very high quality upgrade!

I will make a second run, but we will have to bump the prices a little bit.
With the Pivot pin and the new threaded washer, we had more efforts than initially expected.
All the US packages have been shipped. International packages are next!

Early Christmas! Got both of mine today.
Just holding them I can see a serious piece of mechanical engineering. Well done BenGerman!
These join my 2 sets of Dave Pepin pedal bracket reinforcements and 2 MWrench steering box reinforcements and a Jay Stratton brake rebuild kit... sooner or later I need to put these into my old e28 and new e24.
Thank you to you people that see a need that will keep these cars on the road and take the time and energy to produce INVALUABLE products.
Keep it up!

Glad you like what you got!
My favorite part is probably the base of the part.
Got this picture today, made my day!
I will make a second run of these next year, with the Christmas vacation I'd hate to get in a rush.

Thanks Ben!!

I just got mine today. Now I can install it and the clutch pedal bracket at the same time.

That's my plan too, if it'll ever get here.

Not Ben's fault, gentlemen. Yesterday I received a "Priority Mail" package that took nearly 2 weeks to wander thru the USPS system--this was an item sent from Henderson, NV (suburban Vegas) to suburban Denver. The good people on the other end advised me when it was sent, included a tracking #. So I could watch as this nugget wandered around thru the Denver USPS Distribution Annexes (apparently there are several) for more than a week.

And yes, USPS does subcontract thru FedEx, not that it seems to matter.

That very well may be the case, but "blaming" him anyway.

Now I'm starting to feel anxious...
I don't think there was anything along the lines of tracking numbers or such, was there?

Mine arrived yesterday, so I think we're seeing the random distribution curve built into the USPS systems.

You were one of the last orders, I’m shipping yours today.
Sorry, I spent some time out in Geordis new retreat.
-- Added Dec 15, 2018 12:18 PM --
All international and the last minute orders are shipped.
I’ll see how many more I can get assembled early next week with the left over parts and get back with all the last requests.
I’d expect availability of more parts around March/April.

Got mine yesterday. I opened the envelope and my jaw dropped - The way each piece is finished and the assembly is put together, it's all so beautiful.
Thanks a lot Ben!
