Just out of curiosity, are you planning to use any exotic metals such as Titanium in the build?

Hmmm... If those pedals were custom designed & fabricated for less than AP units, maybe you should market your product... They are truly beautiful.

I can also appreciate your patience - rushing this level of project would simply compromise it.

But, hurry the F$%k up...!

Rome wasn't built in a day but the way it was built allowed it to burn to the ground in one day. Take your time your doing it right. Plus when you done we won't have a thread to keep looking at every day to see what new goodies you have dreamed up for a car we wish ours would be.
