Default Torque box reinforcements

Was just wondering where everyone got theres from and if they got them for a good price.. I found my speed shop here and they said its not worth buyin a set because they are too expensive and said to make them... Now if anyone here has made them , would any of u's have the dimensions needed and what guage of metal used?
Any help would be appreicated
