When will be be able to order the switch plates? You know me I'm a BIG SHR fan.

Are there any planes on doing a 2 tone switch plate? like polished top with brushed in the lines?

Is there any place you have posted other new stuff you have or will be coming out with?

Thanks.

Probably after the first of the year. I know you like our stuff, but we're trying to streamline our production / design to improve time-to-market from months to weeks, but it's a big step, and of course SEMA took a lot of our efforts for months, and now we have to follow up on all of that... when we get that squared away, this will be a much shorter process on new products.

Two-tone, no plans as of now. As always, *anything* is possible given unlimited budget, but in reality each piece will only be one finish. Doing custom two-tone finishes gets expensive real quick, and it's not an easy thing to do in a production environment.

Haven't posted much of the new stuff yet, GT/CS insert was just released, these are in final stages, fuse cover is in the same position, door lock pockets are still in-process for fitment.

There's more, but nothing being posted on them at the moment.

Here you go, taken right before we left for the show. I figured there would've been a bunch of posts of the photos by now, seemed like everyone who saw them was snapping photos of them at SEMA.

Availability of all of our new Tru-Billet products will be after the first of the year, unfortunately we had one of our key team leave us for other opportunities. While the switch plates are shown here, there is still about 5% more I want to do on them prior to allowing production to go with them.

We're on it though, so as soon as we can, we'll get them out. I really like the look, and I think it struck a good balance between the no-stripe vs. stripe crowd that made a tasteful piece.

See for yourself... these are in chrome in the sun, then another shot here is from our display at SEMA.

Convertible, no problem.

Finishes, the usual - Satin, Black, Polished w/ clear anodize, and triple-chrome. So short of anodized red or blue, I think we have everyone covered

Leo,

Do you really want these without the single line? I can still do a special run of them for anyone who wants them when we make the initial run, but it looks sooo good with just a little dress-up there - no line is just too plain! But I know not everyone agrees with me, so we can do it for you.

On the delivery, as soon as we can. Buy existing products and have friends do the same so we can afford to invest in a production run of these for everyone

i am not sure how everyone else feels, but i wouldn't mind pre-paying my order for a one-time pre-production discounted price. if enough people did that, then you should have enough money to make your run, huh?

i don't know how this business stuff works, so maybe that isn't an option. just a thought. didn't you do something like that in the past? can't remember.
