You should receive my paypal payment for the pair in the next few minutes.
Thanks for doing this.

Got mine today, man you've out done yourself this time... These look even better than the A/C trim rings. Did you use a different alloy?

If you want to mail them back to me, I'll machine polish them some more and see if that looks better to you...

It's MAXCICHON, not MAXICHON, although I too have been guilty of making the same mistake.
( BTW, he will be here at my place tomorrow for installing the $25 autodimming mirrors I found, along with refurbishing the headlight pair I bought from Jason )

Re: CUSTOM Glove Box
Thanks FP, some nice ideas...and I will keep going with more parts and I'd be happy to make any custom parts if someone has a good idea... I did finish the glove box trim ring that some people had mentioned...it matches the a/c trim rings and has a lip that fits into the round opening...however the lip isn't enough to hold it because the round opening of the glove box is at a slant...but the lip gives it a cleaner, more factory look...4 small pieces of 3M double faced tape (1 on each side) secures the ring. Here are some pictures...
Fingers crossed you still have one.
Thanks Bob
