Ok,
I have to go to work early in the morning, so here it is. I'm making the chrome trim that goes around the windshield. The 3 main pieces. They will be less than $125 a set in the group buy. I'm working on the tooling to get the shape correct. These will ship in a custom box that will protect them from damage in transit. This is a big problem with these as the metal is very soft. The boxes will run $7 each(my cost). They will weight about 1# (probably less with the box), so shipping will be pretty inexpensive USPS priority mail. Maybe $6 ish. Sign up here if you are interested. And yes I can ship multiple sets in one box. When I have these ready for finishing I'll forward the payment info. Thanks to all !! Sorry to have taunted you, but I hope you find it worth the wait. Attached thumbnail(s) |

Ok,
I have to go to work early in the morning, so here it is. I'm making the chrome trim that goes around the windshield. The 3 main pieces. They will be $99 a set in the group buy. I will have the tooling complete in about 5 days and will post pictures of the prototypes and the installed parts then. These will ship in a custom box that will protect them from damage in transit. This is a big problem with these as the metal is very soft. The boxes will run $7 each(my cost). They will weight about 1# (probably less with the box), so shipping will be pretty inexpensive USPS priority mail. Maybe $6 ish. So for a total of about $112 you can all new trim that will be identical to the OEM!!!! The forming dies will be done in about 5 days so It will be a few days before I can have installed pictures. The main production run will be in about 2 weeks and the finishing will be about 7-10 days. So these will start shipping in about 4 week. Sign up here if you are interested. And yes I can ship multiple sets in one box. When I have these ready for finishing I'll forward the payment info. Thanks to all !! Sorry to have taunted you, but I hope you find it worth the wait.

Ok, Sweet! So, will the stock corners and center section fit the new pieces exactly (or at least really, really close)? What about color/texture match between them?I have to go to work early in the morning, so here it is. I'm making the chrome trim that goes around the windshield. The 3 main pieces. Oh, yeah, I'm definitely in for a set! |
