***If you want custom colors or lettering let me know and we can work out a cost. I have ability to put whatever you want on there***

MADE TO ORDER

After a lot of trial and error, I finally have a product I am proud of and I'm sure everyone will be pleased with!

These are made from 1/8" PETG and are incredibly durable. Aside from taking a sledgehammer to them or something else of immense force ie. another car, you will not be able to break these. You can use them to repair a cracked or delaminated lens, or just protect the originals you may have now.

The shading and lettering is extremely crisp with straight letters/no deformities like some originals and reproductions.

The shading is on the inside of the cover. If they ever become scratched, they can easily be flame polished or with fine sandpaper and a buffer.

Included with the covers is a tube of 100% clear silicone to affix the covers to broken lenses and seal out water

OR double sided tape to attach and protect original lenses. Silicone cannot be used. With all the ones I've tried, they near permanently bond with the originals and it will ruin them if you try to remove the covers.

----------------------------

All the covers will come with a 1 YEAR warranty against defects or fading. If you manage to break these somehow I will not cover it.

----------------------------


I am going to be making these on a per order basis and will not be making more than ten sets a week. I don't think that will be a problem but this is a warning that there may be a wait time



A broken lense



My cover simply laid over



A modified lense. You can hack these up as ugly as you want. It makes no difference! I use a rotary tool ie. Dremel with a mini saw blade. I buy them from Amazon but they are available at Harbor Freight also. You do not remove the outer layer of clear. You cut out the lettering, and the "window" and that is it. This lense just looks that bad. It still has it's 2mm clear outer shell
http://www.harborfreight.co...ndrel-set-67224.html



And after




Post promo pricing is $375 Shipped via FedEx and I will ship anywhere! As of right now I can only take PayPal. I don't want to deal with liability of money order or check. PayPal keeps everyone safe and you have double protection from them and your card company. In the near future I will have the ability to take credit/debit directly.

Thank you everyone for the support and kind words so far! I have a few other products in the works as well. Be on the lookout in the following weeks for quarter windows and interior plastics/surrounds

If you have any questions, please direct them to this thread:
https://www.fiero.nl/forum/F...1/HTML/096450-2.html

Or drop me a PM

These look great! Can't wait to see some pics with these installed!

A question - is it possible to have a set made without the PONTIAC lettering, just solid black in the middle?

Looks like a great alternative. Can you post a link to a installation video if there is one available? Thanks.

My taillights are in pretty good shape, but I was never a fan of the PONTIAC lettering, so this is looking REALLY good. Keeps the lights protected while giving me the look I want without modification of the originals. This is BETTER than new lenses!!!

I'm in for a set with just black - no lettering.

All PMs replied! Two sets are still available in that first five

I'll have an installation video from one of these gentlemen soon. I decided not to post mine, the quality of the video was just not great and I don't want to give that kind of image. I've spent a lot of time and money making these as perfect as humanly possible. Me spitting and stuttering through the whole thing isn't what I want out in the web for all eternity

Your lenses look great!! I will definitely be down for a set (or two) in the near future. Right now I'm up to my eyeballs in several Fiero projects including a 3800 build video that I want to try and wrap up next month. If You're still looking for more test subjects by mid next month I can try and pick up a set as well as do an install video on it.
Thank you for all your efforts in getting these made! I was following your other thread before it fell apart and it's nice to know that you are finally able to provide a repair option to us GT owners

Those look awesome!! I can't wait to see an install video. Way to think outside of the box to come up with a solution to the impossible plastic forming to recreate originals. Glad to see they made it into production, that other thread got pretty nasty. My originals are still in decent shape, but if I am ever in need of a set, I will definitely be in contact.

Payment sent.

I have a pair of "marginal" tail lights that will be the perfect base for these. I'll post pics as I do them.

How soon can we expect to receive them?

My first order of boxes were cut too small and the replacements tracking show they will be here today. I should have all 5 of these out by the late afternoon and will send tracking numbers for everyone. They are going Fed Ex Home Delivery so no longer than a week

I'm sorry for being slow. I missed the delivery and had to pick the boxes up.

This is my last week at my old job and they are grinding me into the ground. Things will move much quicker after Saturday. Again I'm sorry for delaying everyone a couple days. I will have them out ASAP. If anyone has any questions please PM or email me.

6 orders are out and waiting on an address from you Shho13

Check your emails and paypals for tracking information! My quoted FedEx for my business account was not "accurate" to say the least so they were sent USPS.

These are made to order. I have 20 blanks formed, waiting to be painted. I had quite a few people interested in custom colors and letters so I'll be keeping them blank until an order is made

Mine has been stuck on "shipping label created" for awhile now. I'm very excited to get these things going; I just finished wiring up my LED kit up so this will be amazing when it's all done

All 7 of the packages are sitting at label created so I am thinking it is just a glitch. They are parcel post which will take a little while but they should have updated by now. I'm going to look into it and send out PMs when I know more. I'm sure it will be fine

5 went out on Monday at 6PM and 2 went out Tuesday at 12. The only estimate I have is from the Parcel Post that says 2-9 days which isn't very helpful. I didn't get a chance to head over there today but I will go first thing tomorrow right when they open. What a great way to start, I should have just used Fedex like I had planned.

Alright. So I was told that because I didn't use a bulk scan form a lot of packages that get shipped in a batch order, not created individually, will not show up until they leave the distribution center which can take up to a week with Parcel Select. If anyone has any questions, of course PM me or email me any time.
