It seems like some of the alloy subframes are made in italy and germany, would be nice to find the source, wouldn't make sense for us european riders to buy a european made product shipped to and from the USA.
There's another thread with a red alloy one from www.motowheels.com
looks really nice.

There's also this guy on ebay in europe. I think the shipping works out to about $50 when i asked him about shipping to CA.

I wish I knew who was actually doing the manufacturing at these various places or if it's individual.

Don't forget that when you register on Motowheels there's a slight discount on parts...

In case you're interested in how a black subframe looks with a red HM, here's a pic of mine...
I wish I could justify the coin for an aluminum version, because that stock piece is truly a boat anchor! I'll just have to deal...
