who wants aluminum sills?

alright here's the low down i'm getting from austin519:

custom made door sills for 1st gen TL
need a minimum of 4 orders
about 50 bucks per pair
you can have whatever you want written on it (comes with the 50 bucks)

so now we need a head count of who wants what.

i'm sure they can make those too, we just have to give them a template or have one of us take off ours and send it in for a few days.

OK. I got some info. $55 for all 4 sills. We can get them in brushed aluminium, chrome, or black chrome. We can have something engraved or leave it blank. 10 people have to agree on the same finish and the same lettering. Everyone vote for what you want. We should get "ACURA" engraved so its fair for all the 3.2 or 2.5 peeps.

I WANT:
Finish - Black Chrome
engraved - A C U R A

Heres a pic by the way. It will look something like this.

By the trim he means the wood that goes across your dash, around the shifter, door panels and such. We are talking about the door sills like the pic I posted above. They are $50-$100 for all 4 doors. He said to send it to Atlanta because thats where the company thats doing it is. He's not doing this himself, hes just setting it up for everyone. If you want to do all the trim in your interior, that will cost $265. Are you still out?

OK. Now I’ve been thinking of getting “INSPIRE” on the door sills since I want to get the emblems too. We need to know who wants “ACURA” and who wants “INSPIRE” and what finish you want. We can get both but we’ll need 10 people for each. Everyone please post because I really want to do this.

What do you want written? ACURA or INSPIRE? Everyone needs to pick the lettering and the finish. C'mon everyone if you really want this be specific.

What is your estimate on the final cost? Shipping and all. And will this work on a 2.5TL also. If all sounds good I might be in. Just give me the run down on the numbers and if it will fit my car.

Reefers: they're just door sills. im PRETTY sure the sills are the same for 2.5 and 3.2 models. according to 96TL, he/she said that all 4 sills are 55 bucks. not bad huh?!

So which finish and engraving do you want?

the choices of finish are: 1) chrome 2) black chrome

engravings are: 1) ACURA 2) I N S P I R E


Quick Reply: who wants aluminum sills?
