So, I know many people use the CNC aluminum brake reservoirs, but I was looking around for some different options and stumbled upon an aviation clear brake reservoir that I think may look pretty cool in the roadster.

It has only a 2 oz. capacity, so I wasn't sure if that was big enough. Thoughts?

Those do look a little bit better than my plastic Wilwood reservoirs but the capacity is not any more and maybe less. I guess the shape is dictated by the application for planes (aerobatics, negative g's, etc....). It would definitely help strike up a conversation, "where did you get those!". I would have to see them on the car to really tell whether it would work for me. Thanks for sharing, WEK.

Those look pretty cool Bren. If you keep a close eye on them, (should be easier with the glass bowls) I think 2oz is suffcient.

neat idea, post your pictures when they are installed, for sure!
