    It's weather like this that makes me glad I don't drive a lowered car anymore. Back in my crazy days I rode my R6 up Mt. Hamilton in this weather. :eek: After I ditched my bike off an embankment on Pescadero road in the Santa Cruz hill I rode for one more year and hung up my cap. Miss it and track days damn it.:mad:

    I hear you only get half a masterpiece since you did the custom bumper. Thanks for providing the template that led to the test fit. :D

    Just a heads up...asked BP yesterday about this issue and they informed me they got rid of their old powder coat guy and got a better one, and are seeing good results. I like how the guy responds, and therefore hope their product is as good as their customer service.

    Update!

    Lots of progress has been made I've started from scratch mutable times after the first prototype.

    I've eliminated the bezel all together as it looked cluttered. Also the center section will be removable with the logo cut into it. As well as plate that bolts behind it that you can have painted to any color you like.

    I should have picture of this one installed on our mock up grille early next week.

    If all go's well ill switch them to live on the site and orders can be placed.

    The first batch is going to be large with over 100 wish lists saved as of now. So the lead times could be a few weeks or more for the people last to order. I might even put a order limit the first batch to keep the lead times down.
