Looks Nice!

I'm concerned if the 2 way tape will hold well after all the car washes. I'm averaging 2-3 a week.

Can't wait to get mine on.

Man....once 3M tape sets in the sun for a day or two and bakes.....its hard as hell to get off. I have seen it pull the paint off of cars when they tried to remove the item stuck on with that stuff. It'll be fine.

I agree, they look good. I would like to see more of a side marker exposure. Also, I do have a bit of a reservation with Ron. I have seen lot's of no responses, money sent, no response, and money sent with no response. Holding back till I see more active reactiveness from Ron. Looks like a nice product though.

Derwood...Don't worry about me, if someone paid they will get theirs very shortly. If you want to wait to see thats up to you. to answer a few concerns the 3M tape will hold up, Scott is right, and if you want the side marker exposed that is no problem. I did it this way because that is where the light bulb is and the rest is a refelxer. I have a big shippment going out this weekend. I'm glad you like them and the response has been great, thanks to all.

Matfab,

considering you already persuaded Ron to raise the prices for the normal ones, i would kindly ask you to please stop asking him to raise his prices. He's a grown man, who runs his own business. i'm pretty sure he can set his own prices. thanks again for costing me an extra 80 spot!

i'm sorry but for what he is fabricating and painting to a perfect finish i just kindly let him know that he is underpricing his goods and time. I will guess that this is one of his first attempts at running a "parts" business and just because he's a grown man doesn't mean he is a expert of every aspect in life. So i'm sorry it cost you alittle more money but if 80 means that much to you PM me and i will send you half of that to offset your costs....

don't worry about it dude. i'm not sweating the 80 bones, that's not a big deal, it's just the priniciple. i'm sure i'm not the only one kind of perturbed that you brought up raising the price. I don't mean to disrespect in any way, just wanted to voice an opinion.

I am with you. I think Ron has a great product and I am certain that it's worth every bit of $130.

I didn't mean any disrepect when I thought 08's would cost little less given that it "could" be a smaller piece - I presume just covering the side. BUT, suggesting that it should cost more just because they are new or for whatever reason MatFab may have for blurting that out is...well, childish. Let me guess, you already got one for your GC?

Kaiser & Sbkim...IMHO I may be bias but you can chose to have your headlight "professionly" painted, but then it's just that a painted headlight. But to do it right you will have to take your headlight out, so no light bleeds out the sides or under. I personaly feel that the 3D look makes it look like a custom mod.Although painting directly on the headlight is better then using red,black,silver duct tape, JMHO. To each his own. I wish who ever want to try the painting way all the luck, just remember painting is forever.
Good luck Ron

Hi Ron,
I sent $129 by paypal this afternnon. Please let me know when you expect to ship these out to me. Some guys are saying that it is tough to communicate with you. I hope that isn't the case. I really want to get these from you.

Thanks!

Do you think these covers will last through a New England winter without cracking?

i've already ordered a set but am contemplating waiting to put them on until after the winters over just to get a full 6-7 months on them next year. or can i just heat up the 3m tape and peel them off when i need to?

they're tough as sh*t -reason why my broke is that i tried to peel one off and re alight it and cracked it when it bent - it was hard for me because i have 3m film on my headlights arlready to protect them from chipping-so the 3m tape on the film made it super hard to get off
