Billet hood hinges
Aluminum door sills

A nice looking piece or plastic or metal to take the sun visors off abd have this piece be a 3 hole piece that just screws in place. I hate sun visors and would take them out if someone make a little piece to just cover over the hole there

Complete rear battery relocation kit

A kit to shut off all power to all exterior lights. As in brakes side markers brake lights. So if some ******* is tailgating you at night. Boom flick a switch and all power is off on the back.

Thats all I got right now.

The piece I propose would be tough to do....

A carbon fiber door with mounts on the inside for all factory window mechanisms. Then some aluminum window tracks to go with it. That way we could keep the factory glass and have functioning windows while shedding some weight.

You guys make great stuff. Just throwin that in.
I'm clueless, what is a bulkhead? Logos are a no go for us... We already do the delete panels in ABS and anything we do in ABS we can do in stainless or aluminum. Block offs seem like they'd just add weight back...

Already make it...

http://6litereaterdesigns.com/store/...roducts_id=193

It is more expensive because it is flexible fiberglass so it costs $100 more to ship. If you're local you can pick up for a lot less...

We used to offer all that in carbon (we'd wrap it or make it) and had no takers...

Bumper won't happen due to only selling 10 LS bumpers so far...

Any pics of the bracket?

We could do it but would need 10 preorders and it wouldn't be cheap (shipping alone would be retarded)...

fiberglass hoods....but let everyone give you ideas, on what there looking for.

I seen you had the delete plates for the cup holder etc. I think you should sell them with switches, etc and let people choose the wording that they need.

Pillar pod, to replace the whole factory piece...I already know the answer.

maybe make factory seat covers and let people make them the way they want. stiching etc. like the one seller has on ebay but not 800-1000+

I saw your shift boot, can you make the e-brake and console lid cover as well?

3) Remove any material needed (the circuit board) to make room for whatever gauges you picked...

4) Bolt our piece in place (lines up with all the bolt holes and guide pegs the factory piece used...

Right now it is just a blank piece, haven't decided what the best/most popular gauge hole configuration would be...

I'd sell for like $40-$50 shipped (blank or with a hole design we come up with, custom would be more) depending on what the machine ends up telling me (waterjet machine calculates time it spends, material, etc... to tell you what your cost in the piece is).

Who wants the first blank piece for $30 shipped to install and take some pics for me?
Yo 6, here's the pic of the blank I took ........a month ago, lol.

Sorry for the delay.

Sad to hear. I'd give you the $ now for the LT1 version.

Looks like they are selling for $100 used (if you can find one) and $250 for billet.

The battery relocation would be good. If it was a complete kit with instrutions with the cut off switch thur the rear panel and be NHRA legal <-- main thing. And of course be as light as possibly and still be able to carry the load of the electrical system.

agree with the battery relocation idea, must be a complete kit tho and have the legal shut-off and so on. Just make it more convient for some to buy a well put together kit then piecing everything together themself.
