Chill_dog, the wheels have just been completed, centers only, now they are being sent out to the painter, we had a small problem with the centercaps, but has been resolved.
As for pricing on the devotions, those are custom quoted, call in for a price.
junior, mod and vendor, lucky dog!
Paint matching is very dificult with out having the vehicle in front of you to match since paint condition varies from vehicle to vehicle, so we have no guarentee on our paint. We are using the OEM paint codes. This option is for those who really don't want the hassle of finding a shop and would risk the chance of a slight mismatch. Now a 2 stage paint like metallic or 3 stage paint like pearl is Extremely dificult to match, that is another reason why, and even the original vehicle might have mismatched panels from the factory. Our paint won't match any better or worse than the prepainted A-Spec.

I think they will sell well ron, all I was saying is that the majority of the people buying the kit, have already stated they dislike the oem grille with the kit, do you remember that thread about your RJ custom grille? I'm honsestly just trying to help out You know I support what your doing and honestly am being picky because that's what car people do. I am aware that the grille is part of the bumper, and that mesh was impossible without permanently modifying the car, but from what im learnign right now about body kits, poly-urethane is the strongest, and it is a bitch to mess around with, if people do want to make changes to the air ducts and to grille. I'm unfamiliar with thiis filler idea of yours, so that perhaps could look professional, but opposed to just fiberglass, which is isnt too difficult to mold into shape, this poly-urethane is going to be a bitch correct?

but overall, it's super! congrats.
Whenever you can, try to do a 3D picture of the car that we can spin around, the tools are out there. it would be amazing and it will increase sales too...

A-1 Job RonDog
From a Canadian owner of the TL... RonDog that modification to the rear
is how the original should have been done, with a slope away from the car
instead of the ledge which I find nothing more than a water collector and
nuisence when loading the trunk with whatever, be it golf clubs or groceries.
Job well done. Would the grill be availabe as a stand alone component for purchase?
Again, RonJon, very impressive execution from design to production.

I think it looks great, but to me, it seems like the center section seems too big (where the front plate would go). I feel the same way about the factory bumper though...

I totally agree. That ledge annoys the crap out of me. Esp if you do a quick wash or it rains, the water collects there and creates spots. So annoying, I'm glad this rear is designed to eliminate that issue. Looks great!

RonJon, another thing I particularly like with your design for the
rear of the TL, is the way you have incorporated the rear sweep down from the
taillight housing to the bumper proper. It almost "Mirrors" the shape and sweep
of the taillight themselves, giving a much bolder, yet cleaner styling to the
car. How much is that in Canadian Dollars...... JK.
