The brkts are lasered out of 1/8" plate stock.
Got everything mounted, cut, and mocked up today. Now it just needs welding. FYI, I only needed ~49-1/2" of tubing to go from bracket to bracket. It clears the filler neck with plenty of room to spare. Here are some pics:

And it's done. Had it welded on the car and then powder coated black. Put the rear bumper on and took it for a drive. The car felt extremely 'tight' but I did install the 'GNX' brace at the same time so take that with a grain of salt. Here are some pics:
