I noticed on the "Buy List" I was not with the group. I sent a post earlier and I want to make sure I am included. I will take complete set. Thanks

I have a SSB 04 coupe. Could you provide a few pics of yours with the grill. Thanks much, Gary

Gary, This is a photoshop someone did for me to get an idea what it looks like on the SSB.

Thanks,IMO it really looks a lot better on a charcoal grey or black Crossfire. It just doesn't have enough contrast against SSB.

I'm thinking the samething. I showed it to a few people I work with and they didn't like it. I would like to see what the real looks like on it though.

Guys,

I have to admit the photoshopped image does not look that good. Mcombcliff actually has one. Maybe he can post an actual picture. Especially after his comments.

Gary- He sent me pictures with & without flash. The ones without flash give the grill a appearance of being a smoke colored chrome to the point I thought it was a different version of the grill. I pm'd him and he told me it was the same grill without using flash. I'll e-mail them for you to look at.

Hey Gary would you be so kind as to post the pictures I sent you. Some members have requested them and I don't know how to do it.

Here are some pics of McCombcliff's SSB SRT6 with the chrome grille (and my SRT6 badge, thanks)



After having it on for a week and trying the blackout, I have to admit I prefer the chrome surround best.

Hey Karl, any idea on when you'll be shipping these ?
I have a Houston area meet on the 29th March, and it would be great to have it then.......:O)
Do you need my paypal e-mail, or do you still have it from the badge purchase ?
Again, many thanks for organising the purchase !

Does the border/outline need to be that wide on these grills?

Good news, Bad news,

Good news, my dealership application has been approved and I have placed my first order.

Bad (not that bad really) news, they did not believe me when I told them how many grilles would be sold. I am getting some Friday and will have to prioritize them. The next batch is coming in early April and quite honestly is nearly sold out (thanks to all of you)!

I will let everyone know on Friday when they can expect shipment. I will not bill you until I have the product ready to ship. We can get the ball rolling by sending me an email to karl@cardoover.com I will send out invoices via paypal.

The truly good news is that the mfg is very pleased with your response and is going to look at additional items for our cars. Right now they are checking out chrome door pull overlays (not the cups that are currently out there). They are also looking at my idea for rear mesh grilles from my photo prototype. Pricing will be very affordable. Post additional items, but keep it real. I think we may be on to a good thing here.

Nice pics on the SSB. I knew the photshop version just didn't do it justice.
