They are plastic and that red tool box is pushing the weight limit. Thanks for the headsup.

Hi BZ,
Nice!
It's good to see a garage with a little different 'look'!
Is 367 on the way 'in' or 'out'?

You should put the black stripes down the middle of the bumper cover hanging on the wall to match the car. Nice job you've done there though.
