Anodized jacking pads?

Awhile back a vender posted C6 anodized jacking pads for sale.

Could someone provide me with the name and site of the vendor?

Thanks,
John

Is there any problem of fitting a floor jack under the pads when they're attached to the underside? Seems like they'd be pretty low. Can you post a pic?

Thanks!

Tunnel Reinforcement Plate for C6- and Thanks For The Tip

Read the thread and ordered the red ones- thanks for posting this discussion. My DSOM ordered car is due to arrive in two weeks. Any thoughts on their tunnel reinforcement plate for the C6, or did Dave Hill make the right mods to the stock plate compared to the C5?

I'm still using the ones from my C5. Two hockey pucks together with an eyehook. There was a positng on building these a couple of years ago. I did notice it seems using the same jack on the C6 the frame seems to be a little lower at that point than my C5.

Just ordered the red ones. They look pretty cool. Not sure about the tunnel reinforcement thing. Maybe 1% stiffer frame??? I don't think I'll notice a diff.
