Thanks for the update antichristpm...
|
Have any of you seen this site?
http://www.emachineshop.com/ |
|
How about rotary accents? I already bought my strakes :(
|
I'd be interested in the ra's as well...
|
Sign me up for a set of three strakes (on each side), if they'll be under $100...
That emachineshop site is amazing! I can do some aluminum work in my garage workshop, but not formed pieces with compound curves, like the strakes. |
Originally posted by antichristpm Um... did you not read... I'm the one producing plastic cast versions of these. I'm sending out two sets to the lucky folks a few threads behind. After I get feedback I'll put them on the board for sale in the parts section. You'll be able to paint them any colour as they'll arrive primer gray. Yes, they'll be cheaper than the metal ones. Anything new on the strakes? I am still looking... Has anyone get strakes done through emachineshop? http://www.emachineshop.com/ Thank you!:cool: |
I'm one for the lucky guys that were supposed to get a set of the strakes.
Antichristpm: Any updates on this as we have not heard anything in quite sometime? |
I know I'm sorry. I went on a two week vacation (duely needed!). I'll get them out Monday. I promise. I'm going to put the sets I'm sending you and Gyro on my car to assure a fit... Here's a pic of the 'line'.
|
How about a set for the starter of this thread? I am certainly interested!!! :D
|
Sorry... these two beta sets have cost me around $400 in materials and another $600 in labor or so.
|
Thanks antichristpm! I thought you forgot about us :)
Can't wait to see what they will look like on the car. Wondering if I should have them painted silver or use touchup paint to paint them black...for that subtle look. Anyone have any idea's? |
what i would do
I'd suggest either taking it to a pro or investing in a $40 airbrush and a small bottle of clear coat. I think we all got the little touchup bottles for free. You could more than easily paint all 4 with that bottle then clear coat it afterwards. They're primed white and may need a little sanding but they look more than suitable to me.
|
They look fantastic!!
Thanks Antichristpm. I will post pictures of the finished product with high quality macro photos... after I have them color matched and clear coated in Sunlight Silver. |

I would go with a professional spray gun. If you decide to to the Sunlight Silver. I can have my guy do it with the pint of paint I buy. |
do we have any idea about what the ballpark price wil be?

Gyro:
I might take you up on that offer. I could send mine to you and you could have them painted up sunlight silver. I bet even with silver against the black it would look sweet. I'll let you know when I get them in. Thanks! |
Right now I'm thinking $100 shipped. Depends on how many people order.

Antichristpm:
Not sure if I asked this before but will all the hardware to mount them be included? |
Everything in my kit is the same as the Mazda kit. Cept'... of course plastic instead of metal. I'll have instructions too.
|
My car came with them on it. It was a demo and they came off the sticker $3900. I can live with the 3600 miles that were on the car. I also got the Exhaust Finishers, Rotary Accents, Aluminum Door Sill Plate, Rotor Shaped Valve Stem Caps.
