Default CME Valance

Just wanted to tell the Western Members, in particular SoCal area, that someone in SoCal will be reproducing the CME Valance. The thread link below has a lot of discussion on it and required that we get 20 people in before the guy would take a mold and start making them. We will be needing a 4th gen camaro to test fit the valance on for one week. So far there are a couple of people interested in this. That person will receive a free valance, painted to match, for volunteering their car.

https://ls1tech.com/forums/removed-locked-thread-graveyard/698394-cme-valance-price.html

Let me know if anyone else is interested. The price will be $250 picked up or $250 + shipping/$300 shipped.

I did say Western Members. The SoCal part was just to let them know that a car will be needed for fitment. If you want to volunteer your car for 1 week in SoCal that's up to you.

The manufacturer is in Baldwin Park. There are quite a few people that have expressed interest in being the test car. I'll let people know how it goes. I have one person that will go check the place out and some other stuff that they do.

I'll be dropping my valance off to him Sunday, May 6th. He'll get started on it and make the fiberglass mold then produce the polyurethane piece for fit/finish. Other than that, is anyone else interested? PM me or post up to get on the list.

I am going to hold off as well due to finances.

Good luck!

Don't worry. There will still be a chance to get in on this and he'll continue to produce them.

Just to update the thread, I talked to Eric and I will be dropping off my valance to him on Sunday. He will need a Camaro for him to test fit the valance on sometime next week. It will be needed for approximately 1 week, depending on how well things move along. He will be starting on the mold early next week so I will give his number to whomever is interested in being the test car. Some people have already expressed interest and I will contact them through PM. Just in case any of the 5 people I contact decide not to be the test car, contact me if you are interested.

No luck with the tips yet, but I'm still looking.

Just search CME. It is designed to fit the rear bumper and fit two tips in the middle.
