Default Found another company that makes billet HVAC/Headlight *****!!!!

I've found another company that makes billet HVAC/Headlight ***** for F-Body's. They are called Machined Products Inc. and make billet accessories mostly for trucks, but they do make ***** for the Camaro.

http://www.billetin.com/camaro9702billetkit.html

I just received my set of HVAC/Headlight *****, and they look great! They are high-polished, have grooves to get a good grip, and even include a small indicator light on each ***** [something MBA's don't offer]. Not only that, but they are MUCH cheaper then MBA's *****. For the price of two MBA *****, you can get all four Machined Product's *****.

I thought I'd just pass this along to people that are hesitant to buy the MBA billet ***** due to price.

They almost look like my barb-b-q *****. I'd like them if they were smooth, probably. The ridges just dont look right.

Can you post some pics of yours when you get them on? They might look different with better pics.

They look nicer in person. I'll get some pics when I can. They almost look like the stock ***** from a Blazer/Jimmy.

Yeah, I love my MBA ***** to death. I saw those a long time ago and didn't like the ridges.

FWIW, MBA's ***** did/do have an indicator light.

My ***** have a small hole that lets light shine through and acts as an indicator light. If you look closely above you can see the hole, its very visible at night.
