Picked up these bad boy Brembo's from a Mercedes clk black series a couple months ago, now the time has come to hang them!
Mocking up the brakes, making sure everything clears
Rear rotor and everything looks good so far
Front caliper mounts, just a few welds left and its complete
Mounted and complete, rears still need some work
Just for size comparison here are the factory front brakes compared to the Mercedes black series Brembo's
The rears
There will be more when I finish the rear mounts. The yellow is not staying, McDonald theme is so played out.Last edited by EasySpeed*Inc; 04-25-2014, 10:41 PM.sigpic

Its time to build a radiator shroud, Lets check it out
.065 aluminum sheet coupled with .065 aluminum angle
All edges will get the full attention to detail
love my cheap ass electric shears, best $15 ever spent
I scuff pad everything
Framed
Center then center punched
Center drill bits work wonders on thin shit like this
Now drill
Yes it will all be riveted, because rivets are badass
This is my favorite deburring style bit
Look at how damn nice that looks
More drilling
Mocked up for a visual
Electric fan has been marked and ready to be cut out
Machining threaded inserts for the electric fan to bolt to
Left the white protective film on to protect the outside
There will be more much moresigpic

More lathe! Cutting threaded lugs for the mounts that will attach the shroud to the radiator.
Tap that shit
Drilling all the way through the side
1/4 stainless bar
Here they are all lined up and look pretty close, not bad for just a drill press
All 4 lugs for the shroud and all 4 lugs for the radiator cut and ready to be welded on
Fan shroud lug
These will be welded on the inside of the shroud
And the lug for the radiator
Time for rivets
That is about it for the shroudsigpic
