Way back....oh. at least 6 years ago, we had a member who had sent a series of foglight grills to Canada to be redone by the original (nasty) method. As I recall, he had about 6 sets done. Each was etched with a numeric identifier on the backside. They were absolutely blazingly gorgeous! I've had them stored in my dry basement since, in a desiccant container. One has begun to fog recently.

I have no beef with the seller. Just want to see if he can offer any solution.

Anyone remember these?

If he had them metalized like I do mine they have to be clearcoated or the aluminum will oxidize. I suspect that may be what you are seeing.

I think it would be, he still posts the odd time on the bird, but I think it was since the split, etc. he doesn't want anything to do with the 914 forums.
He doesn't make anything anymore.
