LOL. He'll still give me a ticket. I hope I never get to answer that question.



To make one, it will cost about the same as buying one. The brackets have to be custom made and it wouldnt look 100% unless it came out of a mold. Very easy to assemble it together if I have the parts all made. I would just buy it and save urself the hassle. Not worth saving 50 bucks.



Swift is expensive. U guys dont read my threads!
