Very nice Josh, and nice photo of those polished VC's.......but what about the Coil pack bracket dipping we discussed? You still on for that later this fall? I did find someone locally to do my calipers, since I can't driver without brakes......look almost the same for about the same price, so you are competitive!!!

I'll be sending off the VC's (exchange) but will require a set of the CP brackets, so that you have plenty of time to locate a set. I'll be in touch just as soon as I recover from the GC (ground control perches), springs, and SA Koni's that I require for this 3900# tank.

Sharp looking website, lots of pics so far, and it does load quickly, but please, please, change everywhere that it says "Rims" to Wheels.

Rims are the metal ring that wire spokes fit into, for bicycle/motorcycle wheels, and Daytons.

That would be an honor if you did that!!!!

I don't have much profit in the stuff as you can imagine by the prices, but if you've got my site in your sig that would get you some sort of discount!

Cheers bro!

but a discount would be nice...lol j/k

Nice Joshua, looks real good. I'm already seeing ways to spend money.

Other product ideas: Clear bellows would sell like hotcakes but I know you are already looking into that. Stainless/chrome inserts for Firehawk hoods and heat extractors would be awesome.

I'm glad, it sucks to hear every other teenager I know talk about "sweet rims" on some car they know about.


Also, those polished wheels really do look killer.

Very nice site Joshua. I wish you much success with this new business!! I'm sure I'll be getting some stuff down the line.

Do you have the blue carbon fiber intake covers minus the TB cover? I know you quoted me a price a few weeks back but I was wondering if that was with or without the TB portion.

I just cut the reject cover that my carbon fiber guy sent me and then sent it back today. They'll most likely need to make another mold.... Hopefully we'll have a blue-kevlar cover on your car within 3 weeks. ~Joshua

Speaking of the intake cover, will the ones that you have out now cover the 90mm FAST intake set-up? If not, will you be making one any time soon? I've got plans to run a few lines under some carbon fiber fuel rail covers and top it off with one of your intake covers to hide the hard lines and wires.

The current cover fits the LS1/6 intake like a glove. The runners on the FAST manifold are different so it wont work.

Making a new mold runs $500 - $800 depending on complexity. I don't have that kind of cash at this point to do the mold, but I'd sure love to in the future.

I'm adding several new f-body parts in the next two weeks so stay tuned! ~Joshua
