Neither of my cars have shown any inclination of warping but I'd be in for one set just in case.

Thanks for doing the legwork Dave.

Dave -

With the Rear Exit Headers, there is no heat to warp the vents, but I would like to get a set of the metal vents anyway, since they would ultimately be more durable than the plastic ones. Please add me to the list.

Bony in for a set that I would like powder coated black...

Chip would like a powder coated black set as well. I'll take whatever you make.

OK, I'm confident we'll get enough orders to pay for the tooling so we're going to make this a go. We'll get the math data in their hands and see how long it will take. In the interim, we'll call $750 the price with the understanding that we can likely drive it downward if we get more people. I've worked with these guys before many times and they will likely give me favorable terms on the tooling payments.

Gentlemen,

There is going to be an upfront cost and required payment from DBK to get the necessary tooling set up. I am mailing Dave a payment of $750 today. I'm going to suggest that all members who are in a position to do so, pay in advance or ASAP so that DBK is not out a 4+ figure sum in tooling expenses while waiting for these to be manufactured and shipped.

Would you please join me in this effort? Thanks in advance. :cheers

If these are going to look stock and are paintable, put me down for a set. Plastic there is a dumb idea.

As soon as Arnold gets his head out of his arse, doubling registration fees to offset paying back hard working taxpayers their long over due income tax refunds, I am certainly game :biggrin

I am in for a set of these as well. I will call you Dave to get payment through quickly. I also have a set of the custom ones coming from Pe2eunia but won't hurt to have another set on standby for one of my other cars.

Thanks for getting this done! :cheers
