    For you roadster guys with spare parts....

    Saw these photos on Facebook over the weekend and thought I would share them here. He custom made some foot rest for the web bar in his house.

    Now.. they gotta plumb them to a small smoke machine, wired to a button that also triggers a speaker with the sound of a big-block cobra doing a burnout.

    Lets start a thread on whether to use the exhaust hanger bracket, or not..

    I think I'd pad the sharp open end of them, in case someone accidentally clips it with their ankle. I hate it when friends bleed on the floor..

    Maybe I'm getting old, but that is the first thing that I thought.
    He must be single if that is in the house. I'd be single pretty quick if I did that. I have an extra pipe that I need to find something cool to do with.....in the garage.

    Oh lord the safety police are everywhere. Lets all live in a thick padded room so there is zero chance anything might happen. Oh wait, no, we might get rug burn.

    Here is another idea for spare parts. Made a second one for my brother's hanger. I think they look better on the wall than on my roadster.

    TDSapp, Thanks for the props!

    Well, I'm "that" guy who thought it was perfectly safe to mount side pipes on a bar without bubble wrap. My kids were old enough to know better and my wife understands too well about "real" snake bites and stays away from pipes. Besides, the bar is located in my man cave and it's definitely enter at your own risk....
