Introducing the new fog light grills ----------------------------

These are made from a solid black plastic, not white like the OEM, so no need to paint unless you want another color than black (hot pink for those Miata guys).

So, if it gets hit by a rock. It may chip, but it's black all the way through, not white like the others. They will be $ 84 a pair on the pre-purchase. I will have the first production run this next week (end of the week as it's short).

I'm also working on having these plated in 3 stage nickel chrome. I'm not sure if it will be successful, but my plater has done this before, and seemed to think he can dial it in. He has 3 samples that he is working on this next week, if he gets it done this next week I'll post pictures.

Not sure exactly what the adder will be for chrome, but I can tell you it will be allot less than OEM, and I won't do it if they don't look identical.

Hope this was worth the wait.

Sorry it took me more than 10 hours, really thought I'd have it ready that fast.

The WAS top is in tooling, and I do plan to make the target price reasonable.

Can they be gold plated? I'd like them to match my 32" spinners.

Mark, I'm really disappointed. I really thought you were making the little rubber heater cable caps.


What a let down.

KIDDING! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

I'm in for the door lock pre-buy also but can you hold the order and send it when you send the fog light grilles and save shipping charges?

I want two sets of the chrome ones.
