Steering Knuckle Rubber - Alloy Replacement

I have recently had my rubber steering joint machined by a local shop in aluminium. I have been asked if i would be prepared to run a group buy on these. This is not through any business, just

I am prepared and would need a minimum of 10 to offer the price of £35 plus shipping, £2.25 in the UK.

These fit all the E30 models and not just the E30 M3. Here are a few pictures of it machined and fitted.

A few coats and you can't see the machining at all. I did not sand down the part either

Test fitted to the car. I did not tighten up the bolts just to show how it sits flush

These would be supplied unpainted too.

I have not tested this in a 'on the road' environment, but as it is an exact copy then there is no reason for it not to work.

Please let me know your thoughts.

There is a lot more machining in this shape of doughnut than the one shown here

Is there an advantage?

From the way this thread died, nothing, apparantly.
