I think we might be getting off topic but I'll bite:
I'm currently using ArmorAll Leather Care Protectant (it's quick and works well but doesn't seem to last long) but I've already bought Lexol cleaner and conditioner to use once the armorall bottle runs out since so many folks recommend it. For the plastic dash I've been using ArmorAll Protectant Gel which seems to work really well for me and seems to last forever.

Check out the car care section of TMS for all you'll ever need to know to take care of your car.

I can't honestly say that I like any of the offerings for the shift boot bezels out there. The Ford offering is probably the nicest one, but it's cost prohibitive and the finish doesn't match anything we have in the car now that we've switched everything out for MGW pieces.

Just got my SHR bezels. Got the Polished satin finish. Matches the steering wheel perfect. Here's a few night shots.

Here's a few daytime pics. The camera doesn't capture the finish correctly, but it does perfectly match the spokes on my IUP steering wheel.

Steve, I really like the pictures - how did you get the lighting up like that for the night shots? The distance is too far to use for a product close-up, but I really like how the shots turned out.

FYI the matching A/C ***** (complete with serration cuts) are expected back from anodize / finishing this week Oh - and you gotta update your sig !

Actually, that's the domelights, taken in a fully dark garage. I'll try to get some closeups for you with the same type of lighting. Signature updated. Thanks for the pieces, they turned out great.

No problem, thank you for being our customer. I'm guessing then that you used a tripod to keep shake down, or you have one steady hand for shooting in low-light conditions.

Our new center overhead console should solve the issue of lighting for those hard-to-shoot photos, among other things

Marcello not sure if your interested but there is a whole F-150 community that love Billet Candy. Here is a site if your interested. Great group of member but the folks running the place are well. I will not say any more.

By the way here is a picture of my truck that is anxiously awaiting the Plain Black Anodized Fuel Door.

Definitely used a tripod. Some of the shot took up to 13 seconds. I'll have to get back out there this weekend maybe and get some more shots. New center overhead console, eh? Sounds interesting.

I'm well aware of the truck market, and I think there is a market for quality components in it (I bought some real junk to see what's available for my F350) - the problem is currently one of capacity. Until we can get ahead of the curve in the Mustang market, we'd be shooting ourselves in the foot to expand out into the truck market. While I know we'd do well in it, I don't want to get in there and then not be able to deliver to the customers / dealers in a timely manner.

We started the F250/350 door deal a while back while we were just getting started, but then everything took off on the Mustang front, and we just have been behind ever since

We're building to it though, and when we get there, I think the market will respond equally well to the products we develop for the truck market - after all, I'll be designing stuff I want on my truck too !!
