Can't tell if serious or not? lol I was after something more permanent so will get the JASS brackets ordered next week once payday comes around

There's a group buy on nutz which you can get cheaper brackets with some new replacement plates for frank bolts on the back, have a look might be worth it for the cheaper brackets price if nothing else!

By way of update, I got a set of side brackets from JASS. They fit the sides perfectly, (you do need to cut away some of the plastic trim however). They also fit the fronts but one of the holes does not line up so you will need to get a bit freaky with a file but it will work with some adjusting. If you have a rattly roof I cannot recommend these enough, makes such a difference!
