Alright I got some pictures they aren't that pretty and my car is dirty despite washing in 15min before the pics(the roads are still soaked).

Here are two pics of the rear garnish painted nhbp with only the emblem delete.






Alright and here is a picture of the grille ikona did for me. It is the HOP sport grille painted black and with an emblem delete.

Just wanted to leave you great cats an update. Over the weekend my cold turned into a minor fever and Ive just been sluggish the past few days and am taking the day to just relax and pick myself up a little bit as far as getting rest and trying to get rid of my head pains.

I have 5 panels this week I plan to finish and ship out (yes including transedsailor and thelox) i know I tend to take a little time on finishing these garnishes but I just like to put in the quality and if theres a little chip on the side and its ready to paint, I hate to say it but like to say it at the same time, I will go back and repair that chip and reprimer the edge to paint. Its the extra step I go that I know most companies that make fiberglass parts wont go. And Im sure some of you will agree since I konw many of you have seen what some of these aftermarket body panels and kits look like when they arrive in the mail.

Anyways even though Im taking the day to help my fevar it doesnt mean I cant take some pcitures today of some incoming carbon fiber and kevlar shipments that should be arriving this afternoon. Because I know some of you have ordered carbon fiber garnishes and would like to see something

Other then that Ill haev more pictures tomorrow of panles that will be going out for you guys.

Cheers guys Ill still be answering PMs and talking to you gu ys off my laptop and phone so feel free to keep me company with some questions or comments haha.

John

I got a message from a fitcapo which was saying if Im having problems getting hatch garnishes out I should slow down on other projects for the fit. Im real glad he sent this to me because one, it shows that hes a true moderator, he pays attention to whats going onm on the forums, and not only that, he puts attention into individual members which is going the extra step. And 2, it made me realize maybe some of you think that as well.

Even if I have 4 projects going on at once, it wouldn't delay the garnishes any more or any other project or job going on here at the shop because its simply the case of. When one thing is curing or setting, I have time to work on another thing, then when thats done and is curing, the job before that should be done curing or ready to move onto the next step. This gives me a nic efull 6 - 8 hrs or 9 hrs of work a day sometimes and keeps me busy and in the game. It takes 18 hrs for a hatch garnish to fully cure in the mold before demolding and trimming. In that 18 hrs, I can lay up more garnishes, or move onto other projects. Even though the 18 hrs has to extend to over night since thers no 18 hr work days. Say I set 2 garnishes monday morning and it took me an hr to set the 2 of them up, and now they are curing. Its 9 - 10AM and I have the rest of the day to focus on other projects or other jobs.

I jsut wanted to let you guys know and keep you in the zone on what goes on durring my days so everybody is at ease.



Again feel free to ask questions or leave comments.

John
