The bottom one looks to be in pretty bad shape, it looks like the same one a member had that was bragging that he could do this mod cheaper than yours.
Don't worry, you'll get some of that money back after you receive your hood cap. ;-)

I thought I posted an update this morning?? I don't see it now..
Well here it is again
1st shots coming off the mold today and over the next week on the other molds. once i have the parts and confirm they are fitting and look good we will mold the production order, paint the grilles (3-4 days) then ship to me (about a week) SO i'm estimating to ship last week of November little later than I was hoping but not bad. Very glad to the parts are coming off the molds.. been a long road to get here.
Pics to come over the next few days!!:-D

Thanks everyone for the Continued support!!

If you haven't received your invoice yet and want one, PM me and I will get it to you. Any unpaid invoices will be sent reminders once the parts are on the road to me so they can hopefully be paid up and ship out the same day I receive them!

ALSO Not too late to make any alterations on color choices and LED light packages. Let me know!

Full install Video in the next 2 weeks, and LOTS of pictures.

Cheers All\!

So nice to have a group buy/site vendor that is so transparent and upfront about the process and the product development! Thank you so much, and I cant wait for mine.

Just white plastic, and black plastic, the swirl is from them changing to uncolored (white) from the black pellets. looks pretty cool like that though! They're getting shipped to me now, so hope to have them start of next week for test fitting
