    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    There is a 6 to 8 weeks lead time projected for the orders everyone is backed up on the list. We are not building one at a time they will all go to the same stage together. Once powder coating starts then batches will ship as they are complete and boxed up.

    60 orders total for the sale

    I'm shooting for mid march or a little after but that's only a guess at this point.

    24 gross, im sure at this point he hasn't broke even with all the r&d time and build costs the head of a fab shop put into this grill. I'm sure it'll be popular for years to come though, great job Jlee

    bingo! ^^^ it might sound like a lot but after all said and done there will be not very much profit. This is more of a way to blast out tons of parts to get more customers wanting the grille. If there is 50 to 60 build threads and IG/ Facebook pages with this grille in it it's way more valuable then the small amount of money I'll be making on this sale I've got to look at the big picture when designing parts.

    I didn't say it was a huge profit, I just said its 24k towards the company, which will never hurt..

    Eventually, this product will more than pay for itself, or else there wouldn't be a business very long... I think 24k in the first 24-48 hours for a grille on a brand new truck with a limited market is pretty damn good.

    The wait will be well worth it. Jerry put hundreds of hours into designing this grille.
