I was going to retrofit some off the shelf sidemounts to fit the BC rails, but the amount of hacking turned me away. So I designed my own using the BC rails and L brackets as a template. The design is essentially the two "L" brackets supplied by BC in their kit joined together. I did the design using CAD, then laser cut and bent them from 1/8" ASTM certified steel plate.

Raw mounts, prepped and ready for paint:


Gloss Black Epoxy Paint drying


Finished mounts, in gloss black






Wrinkle black epoxied mounts, before curing. Top slot of rear section of sidemount cut on these ones, to allow Recaro PP to be mounted lower






Wrinkle Black epoxied mounts, after oven curing





Gloss Black vs. Wrinkle Black
so sad to see so many informative posts have been corrupted and the picture have been lost forever.

guess that's why the facebook groups are a lot more active these days
