Guys.

Looking for a source for a polished aluminum or chrome plate/bracket approximately 12" x 5" flat or 12" x 5" x 1" angle. Looks like this (sorta):

31133

Where's what I want to do with this bracket (for mounting both the remote master cylinder reservoir & coil).

Your local hardware (where I went) or Lowe's/Depot will have materials you could use. Might not be chrome but could be polished or Powder Coated. I made all my brackets then had them powder coated.

Here is the Master Cylinder:

Here are a couple of the coil bracket:

What Scott said - for stuff like this, I like to buy my own materials and fab what I want. In this case, you could either polish or powdercoat. Check out McMaster-Carr for high quality raw materials, including mirror polished flat stock of stainless and aluminum.

I can't find anything decent at Lowes. They do have 0.19" aluminum sheets but that's too thin. I also tried an online resource : http://www.discountsteel.com (while I was at work, so I just guessed at the dimensions). What came back was too small:

I need 12x5.

OK, just ordered 1/4" plate from discount steel, custom cut to 12"x5". $15 for the plate, $15 for shipping. Ouch.
