I took a quick pic with a camera phone with the anodizing. Looks pretty cool.

AMAZING!!! Looking very, very nice...

I was thinking about mounting some delrin upper arms & steering blocks myself but the steering blocks will be a problem because the new ones have that helicoil in it. How about some delrin upper arms? Wil that be an improvement or not?

The glassfilled plastic arms are lighter and more rigid than delrin arms. We wanted to keep weight to a minimum and also have a very durable front end as well. The upper arms are a perfect fit on our hingepin block. There is absolutely no hand fitting needed.
