I'm calling your bluff. You do this every year.

That being said it just reminds me even more that you are the only true after market company that has ever put their full support behind our cars. Thank you for everything you've done for us, I will probably consider ordering a set for my camaro

Btw the machines are a better investment than a hard top replacement.

Damn this is sad news. I always wanted them but like many others put it off for other things. Once the GP ended and you guys had all the tools in house I figured I could wait to finish off the build with this. Thats what I get for waiting...

Sucks to read this, I'm glad I got mine awhile back. One of my favorite mods even though I'm usually the only one that sees it. You said you could make them for any car, thought about jumping on other forums (mustangs, trucks, hell ricers, ect.) to justify the cost of that machines? Or would the it cost to much to sell as a sponser on that many sites?

Quick question I'm concerned about. Say in a few years or something if these fail and bubble, what would be done to correct this since you can't make them anymore? Honestly, I would just want another set, but I'm not sure that would be possible.

^^Nothing. That's just the truth. To begin with, I don't know any company that warranties an item years out like that (other than the really big ones) however we only had ONE batch of overlays with bad glue out of 15GPs. Been doing them for years and none of others have had any issues...

Looks like I'm biting the bullet and going to use next week's check to buy this. Pretty excited, just spending the money sooner than expected.

Any chance we can get something for the G8's? I know you guys would probably have to develop them and all but, man, a silver set would rock so hard.

Im thinking about getting some of these before your done but im curious as to what illuminates them? I used to have a set of gauge overlays that you had to wire in but they looked so crisp and had NO hotspots or dim spots.

If so, I'll probably be in for a set. Was thinking about getting a set, but can't send in the cluster and not be able to drive the car.

Guy's we have until the end of the month before these are discontinued. If you really want one, then im pretty sure you can save up enough money by then or even pull some cash away from the build or whatever mod was next. I know thats what im doing, was starting to save up for a new exhaust but if these arent gonna be made anymore. Then the exhaust can wait a little longer.

I think I have an idea
Still wondering

Just to be clear, THIS is $200, plus another $25 shipping charge?
