    Unfortunately, I'm not sure they'll ever go on sale again. With the rising costs of steel and my firm commitment on not raising my prices, there's very little profit in this model anymore.

    Fair enough. Thank you for keeping prices low at least. In terms of bang for buck, your grills are by far the best looking and best quality I have seen. I'll just have to save a little longer for one. Keep up the good work. If you ever start making other products (battery retainers, etc.) I'll be the first in line for them.

    quick update for anyone still following this thread with a 12-15. i finally got the working prototype last week and put in my initial order. as soon as they are here and the first one installed, i'll put them up for sale. i'm hoping this happens toward the end of next week. if you want me to email you when they go up, please message me with your email address.

    thank you for your patience.

    Any more info on air flow? Wanting to grab one of these really bad, and I've never had issue with airflow on my stock grille.
