Very nice stuff! It's good to see someone else finally producing some aftermarket appearance items for our cars.

The only issue is, I have a 10th anni Firehawk that is in dire need of replacement emblems all over the place. Shoot me a PM if you can't talk about it on the board.

Whether it will be exactly on 4/1 or not, I am not sure, but it should be right around that time.

In the meantime, we continue to come up with more items.
So today is April 1st. The contract starts today. I will send you money and you will send me my emblems. Agreed?

We watch the mail each day waiting for the "welcome package". I know it will not be long, but at the same time I do not know what day it will arrive.
Soon, you will be able to order whatever you want.

you could leave out all the lettering or have one with it too. idk if you do this type of stuff but i just thought i would ask , thanks
If you want it, we can do it. However there is a difference in something we would sell a few pieces of, and something we will sell a lot more of.
It would be a custom piece, and we could make it look very nice. We just need settle on a cost. The good thing is you already know what you want. That makes it easier for us, and quicker for you.

The items you are asking for are part of the GM lineup, and will be for sale shortly. I have tried to explain each day, that we are also waiting daily just like you guys. There is no point placing the agreements we made wth them in jeopardy. We supplied them with enough part information to completely fill a 2 inch thick notebook. I really think the amount of parts we supplied, has slowed things down some. We already paid the first years royalties. The GM licensing is not an if, it's a "what day will it start" situation. At that time those pieces, and a slew of others will magically appear on the website. I did talk to the GM rep this morning on the phone.
The stainless steel door sills are extra tough. The door never touches them.
They could be mounted permanently, but if you do that they will get stepped on. Road grime, small rocks on your shoes etc.... will scratch them. I have a set, and they only go in for shows. They are the only thing we remove from the car.

Another item I would buy and you could probably sell a lot of:

SS center caps for the 5-spoke (2000 style) 17 inch chrome wheels. The SS logos on the chromed plastic ones that came with the car come off after a while. I'd like to see a metal center cap with SS, either outline or filled in etched into it like the engine compartment parts you showed.

Could even be a metal overlay on the plastic stocker, though it would require the very slightly domed plastic stockers ground down until the flat overlay would sit flush with the wheel.

In the mean time I'll wait for the three-color SS logo nose emblem to become available - great work on everything you are showing!

I'll second this...

Every-time I wash my car, the logos get fainter and fainter...
