Agreed, don't use those brackets, they will fail.

Search for more info on this. I think from memory I posted about this in the suspension thread, and/or another thread maybe.

nope, lol.

As long as you don't die in the FTO in the garage.

That might hurt its resale. :lol:

Nope lol...
I plan on keeping an FTO for as long as possible... I say an FTO, as you never know....
You may look after it as much as possible, but if someone isn't looking when they go through an intersection.....
