Hi, Just wanted to know how many people are interested in chrome fog light grill that are made out of aluminum? Not the plastic kind you get from Porsche which over years fade and cracked. Plus they run around $114 to $138 each, if they are in stock. After the chrome fades there not other choice but to trash it or paint it. Aluminum can be re chrome or polish and they don't break. I would like to hear members opinion. How much are you willing to pay for each aluminum grills? Any info would be great.
Thanks Dary (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif) |

Thanks Mikey, I have a foundry and a place to do my chrome. I've calculate everything and it's about what you said 60 to 70 dollars. It would be a lot cheaper If I were to produce more but is the demand there? Still a lot cheaper then Porsche, more durable and always can be re chrome. It's just an idea out there and want to see how many people are interested. I've notice most people just paint over their old one to the body color or just black. At what Porsche sell them for I would do the same thing.
