Seen many of FLP's in person. Great workmanship. All hand made with a mandrel bender I believe.

I have also heard good things about Powerhouse. I've seen one car with a 5-point with swingouts. It was amazing how well it looked. Like it had been there from the factory. Everything was very neat.

That would be my car. I have a Wolfe Racecraft black powdercoated chromoly 6pt. with swingout/removable side bars installed by Powerhouse Performance in Orland Park (708-342-0043). The fit and finish is great. Give John or Chris a call and tell them Jeff sent ya!

I can meet you over there if you would like to check out my install.
