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.

Do we have to remove the winshield to install them? |

Do we have to remove the winshield to install them? No, but if your clips are damaged when removing the original trim then you have a real issue. It is very possible to damage new trim while trying to get it to clip into old retainers. |
