i beg to diff.

cus even tho they are stating they want it to cost 50-60 instead of the 100, they are basically telling toofastz that its too expensive and they wouldnt be interested in the kit. in fact, they did 1 better, by even putting a price, to see it toofast can comprimise.

Thank you
Look what I already wrote. There's no way I will be able to sell a kit for under $100. There's already 45 people who are interested at this price, so to the 2 or 3 people who think it's too high, I'm sorry but there's nothing I can do about it.

That is a very fair price. One reason I never did the Hillco set was the high price. $240 for some bolts! After that I priced a lot of the bolts at Ace hardware and granted it was just under 100 bucks they had ugly crap stamped on them. Plus they didn't have all the bolts that were needed.
Just wish I wasn't about to sell my car or else I'd be all over this kit.

Do it man. I contacted Hillco awhile back about their kit and it seemed incomplete with vague descriptions and the price definitely sucked.

In my opinion, Hilco is worth the $$

I voted yes, cause I agree that the price is very fair, especially given the guesswork that is taken out of the mix. How far behind the Camaro package will the Trans Am package be?


I do have another question though, and maybe I shouldn't hijack this thread for it, but I'll ask it anyway . I've done most of my engine bay dress up with the silver satin finished stuff from MBA. Even though silver is my accent color, will the stainless bolts look out of synch with my satin caps and covers? If you all think I should post this as a separate thread, let me know and I will.

Thanks
Paul

I think it will look fine. In the picture below is when I had all brushed covers. I still had polished bolts and I think it looked really good.

My supplier ordered the wrong size of a couple of things so were looking at tomorrow hopefully. I still need to add them to my store and write up directions to install. When they're available, I'll make sure I post up here and let everyone know.

Thank you

Can't wait! Such a simple thing should really make my engine bay look a lot better.
