Default my wheelie bar design

first off i put the new os .18 cv-rx 3.0 on my maxx and could not keep the truck from flipping over backwards so i made this wheelie bar from aluminum flat stock and some airplain wheels. what dose everyone think. it works great. still need to paint it . but could i sell these on e-bay? what are wheelie bars going for on e-bay?

just tried it out tonight and it works great. i can hold a wheelie for about 10 feet if i stay on the throttle.and the truck dont flip anymore , but if i land wrong off a jump , well i bent a wheel on the bar. thank you.
