well after last weekend, I've decided that so I don't have to spend night after night annoying my neighbours with power tools (and then feeling guilty even if it isn't late) I'm going to be seeing someone this Saturday to get a quote to have them moulded and have a small run made up. So I won't go quoting yet in case my best guess is waaay off :Oops:

Will let you guys know as soon as I know. Thanks for your patience :)

I don't think I'm going to bother getting a run done of the stick on eyelids. If people want those, please let me know (drop me an email) and i'll make them up. If the demand for them increases (for the stickies) I'll look at getting a small run done ;)

Sorry guys,

I've been waiting to confirm all of the details before posting up :)

The moulding process takes 3 weeks once the originals are finished. I'm aiming to get the originals painted next week, so it'll be about 4 weeks (once the originals are painted) till we have ready made parts :(

Price per pair is $150 :) and that will be for the bolt-ons.

They will have 2 mounting points (one at the outside, and another inthe middle of the headlight), and to accomodate those who's cars might not be as straight as we'd hope - they'll have metal brackets which will bolt the eyelid to the car (these will be supplied obviously ;) ).

It's going to cost the same for me to get stick ons made so I don't think i'm going to spend too much time worrying about them. If anyone does want stick-on's for whatever reason, email me and we'll work something out. Doesn't seem like there's too much interest for them anyway.

So i guess it's time to start taking official orders :) Please send me an email if you have any q's or would like put an order through. Pic's of the finished product will be up once the first set have been made from the mould.

Please let me know if you want them painted. Painting will cost more obviously. If you want them painted please supply me with your paint code and I'll arrange a quote.

P.S. Please make sure you email me if you are definitely interested. This will help me work out numbers :)

Will have pics in about 4 weeks :D

:P

  • 3 weeks later...

Well lads...they'tre painted and off to be moulded this afternoon :O They look great, better than I thought they would. There were a few delays with the painters, but we got there in the end.

I'm still shopping around for a good price on the paint, so if you guys can recommend any painters please PM me :)

Not long to go now :(

:D

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
