Just a trim plate with some nice screws (Torx or Allen heads) to fill the
triangular hole where the visor was mounted to .

Mark-

I haven't been frequenting these boards often, but it is nice to see that you guys are sticking with the business. I went on your website last night and saw a ton of stuff I am dying to put on my own car. When funds clear up on my end, expect a big order from me. Thanks man

ok. well i dont mean to sound like a dick. but making that piece, should be hard for most people. hell a dremal and you could probably do it. ( and this is no way at all trying to take business form mark. i think what mark does is great and i wouldnt do that. that being said. just getting a template and find a laser and you could have 200 of those things made in a hour. lol. )

Great to hear you'll still be around! Theres so many things I want and plan to get for my car from you. When I heard that you might be closing it felt like a kick to the stomach. Being short on funds for my car at the moment and not being able to purchase anything right now, I thought I was going to miss out on alot of great products. You can def. count on me in making a number of purchases in the near future. I'm also excited to see what you guys come up with next.

Have you ever thought about making decals in house? For exmaple like bfranker used to do which i think he no longer makes decals for our cars since I can no longer find his site and I was planning on buying a few things from him. I think that would be awesome! But then again it might be quite expensive too, I bet those machines arent cheap.

Thanks, and yes we have thrown the idea around a bit, but just making the templates is tough. B. Frankner has YEARS of experience and makes some awesome stuff. I've got a few of his decals on my SS.

Maybe if he's not around anymore (B.F.) we might try it. I know that Mark was pretty excited before about making his own "Hockey Stripe".... one that looked more like the 60's, I think.

I'll talk to him about it more again. But thanks for the interest.

B. Frankner is still around. He has a website and I just e-mailed him to be sure he was till in business. He responded right away and asked that I let folks know he is still up and running. I would post his website but I don't know if it would be against the rules. So you can PM me and I can get it to you.

Hell you should be able to post it. Frankner's install page and style guide is permanent history in 4th gen modding. If it wasn't for him and CZ28 I think most of us would have been lost when we first came to this hobby.

Can't wait to see some more new products by 6LE!

Yeah baby! Great news you're staying in business!

After recieving my overlays you guys upgraded the customizing features then mentioned about stop producing them.

Cool so I guess I'll be selling my old overlays and ordering another more customized set.
