Just a heads up. We made a prototype out of aluminum. Didn't last me very long at all. Bent the mounts pretty fast then broke off. But your mounts look better then ours did. Ended up going with steal. The jump throughs is what did it im sure. All that weight coming off the plate at once. But nice looking product. Just test it.

Looks like its going to be in the $95 ish range for a raw one. First batches will most likely be raw then i will switch over to black anodized just like i did with the shark fins with a higher price tag.

This is exactly what i wanted thanks Ross. Im headed out tonight to do some jumping around lets see how it goes....This is the first sample others will probably vary a little here and there.

This is just product input from a sick innovations steel tailsaver for the f4i. When I stand on mine my feet are in a V so I put alot of pressure right where your mounting points are and the sides outside of the screw mounts. Sick tailsaver is steel and im bending it in just from standing on it. Not sure how well alum is going to hold up to it bending but hope it works. looks clean.

i dont understand how u guys are bending steel tailsavers!! i ran one for two years and have never bent it
