Volunteers Needed for Aftermarket Parts Production

I am in contact with a company that wishes to make grille inserts for the 04 TL...upper and lower.

I need some (2) volunteers who are willing to drive to their facility (Lynchburg, VA 24501) for about an hour and half so measurements can be taken so the grilles can be Researched and designed and prototypes can be made... once the fitments are complete they will go into production.


You will get to have your car featured on their website along with a set of free grilles for your participation.

You are to CONTACT me ONLY... the company will not deal with any OUTSIDERS due to past experiences on other sites.


I NEED competent members to step forward...

PM me or respond in this thread..

Thank You

Smitty

If I go, I'll take my Digital Camera with me.....it's a 5MP Sony DSC-P10 which I think takes pretty decent pictures - while it's not a professional camera by any means, it's decent and should work.
