Yeah, those were the new ones we were talking about. Problem with them is even WITH our honeycomb panel installed, the lens is still clearly visible from any side angle, making them look "stuck-on". I may play with them a bit because I think I know how to solve that problem, but other than that, they aren't bad parts - especially compared to what is out there right now.

Pics - patience - I had a good weekend with the family ( I hope everyone else did too) and had to catch up a lot of orders today. Tomorrow I'm back to work on the paperwork side of things, and I have the 3D drawings done now for the paperwork to be completed.

Yea I bought a set, you are absolutely right,the stick on thing kinda kills it. They look good from a distance and in a straight on picture, but from an angle or up close it kinda bites. They are well made and look like they would last. When you get yours drawn up and the patent straight I am sure I will get a set. I will chaulk the loss up to experience. There were so many stick on flexible products out there that these really caught my eye so I jumped on them.I like the chrome look a lot of people out there go fore the all black trim,hey it looks good to! I am just from the old school... when they started getting rid of the chrome on the cars I was like . Now don't get me wrong, on the cars today there is such a thing as over doing it but back in the day..50's 60's and early 70's. That chrome looked good!
by the way I do have the honeycomb from you guys, as soon as you started selling I got it,great product! I am going for the 70 MACH 1 theme, had one for 18yrs

Keep us posted on your bezels and any other product you come up with.

Been backed-up big time on another project that I had to get done by Monday (outfitting our truck to pull a 32GN), but the parts are in production already. I'll get pictures of actual production parts when they are done because the prototype is not nearly as nice looking as the production drawings.

We do have one issue we are working on - the 3M tape needs to be die-cut, which might hold us up a bit, but other than that, everything is moving ahead very nicely. I am very happy with the retro style piece, and we're working on solving the running horse trademark issues - I should be able to at least get some ideas at another meeting on Monday.

Ok, off to bed - been a very, very long couple of days here.

Thanks for the update - IMO there is not another supplier that keeps customers as up-to-date as you do. Are we do take that the bezels will have a "running pony" or something similiar on them?

This thread evolved into talking about 2 different pieces. Maybe the pony is going to be on the new rear medallion?

Yeah, it did - my bad...

I was waiting until the "official" release of the rear medallion parts to break it out into another thread, when I do, it should help lower the confusion (even for me...)

As to keeping everyone up-to-date, I just do what I'd like done to me if I was the customer. Unfortunately not many manufacturers do this, and I feel it is important that we do.

Oh - as to updates - meeting for our quarter windows is tomorrow. Prototype is done, and I'll report back on Wednesday on what transpires.

Ha - you should see the inside of my head! Try keeping this all in order...

I'm up in GA right at the moment picking up our new race / show hauler. I had to drive 18 miles to get a cell signal... anyway, just a teaser - the windows came out AWESOME! I have to get back to the office, but when I do, I'll have to get some updates together.

The rear medallion pieces may start being done by the end of the week. Over 300 are machined, and at anodize now - that's what I've been told. This is going to be a cool summer for us Mustang types!

Oh, and yeah, in the future, I'll try and keep the threads a little more sorted... Part of this was before we started advertising on TMS too....

Let me work on stuff tomorrow, and see where I can get in the grand scheme of things. I have some fires that need to be put out, but might have some time to devote to this.

I want to get everything out there for everyone, but I have to be smart about this stuff... please just have a little patience, although this isn't Rome, we're still not able to build it all in a day .
