Hey gang! Need your help...

Would anyone be kind enough to measure they're hard top support bars for me?

/beginrant
I'm sure as hell not paying thethingshop 120.00 for 2 bars of painted steel or $150.00 for used rusted ones that obviously are way overpriced (sitting for a year in thesamba classifieds? come on dude, get real).
/endrant

They pissed me off enough to make my own!

P.S. Learning welding atm, so adding on the flat parts at either end will be no issue, just need the measurements.

Didnt know if you still needed these. Hope they help. That support is a little funny. Not only does the long bar have a bend but the flat bracket at the top is also at an angle. I can try and measure those if you need the info.
