Colin,

We can do them in mirror. The one in the picture is a mirror piece.
The brushed material is just a lot more tough.

I like them, but wouldn't do me much good at a show in the daytime..Do you offer them with nice Trans Am script without the lighting?

We can do it.
The F body sills are almost 40 inches long, and too large for our etching laser.
Rather then sandblast an etch onto these which how someone else does it.
We can laser etch in "black or gold" the Trans Am script, and make it as an insert. No problem, but it will be more expensive to do this than they are currently selling for.

Thanks, Roger

Good thing i held on from buying some ebay ones. These look awesome.
I better get used to having people remove their shoes when riding in my car.

In room light you can see it. We know this because this is where wo do our testing.
In sunlight you will not see it.
So a garage light, or an interior dome light is not enough to stop you from seeing it.

Thanks, Roger

I'm not into chrome or polished pieces...and I know you can paint because of your hydro dipping..... but can a set be painted red or black (for me) for example, and just have the lettering etched?

I'm sure the answer is yes, lol. And I'm sure the price will go up, right?

Thanks fellas!

The answer is yes, and yes. This would also add an increase to the time for you to recieve them.

Have you guys thought about doing emblems that light up (for other parts of the car)?

We have thought about it, and we will be doing that for some pieces.
We are a little reluctant with some other pieces because in order to make the system work, holes would need to be drilled into the car. If someone did not mind doing that, we could most defintely make them. lighted SS's on the fills, lighted Z's, etc... Lighted license plate frames are on our list, and some underhood ideas as well.
We need to get ths project done first. Rather then try to tackle too many things at once, and do each one to partial stisfaction: We would like to fully develop one, then move to the other. But we absolutely have a list related to this lighted capability.

Thanks, Roger
