That can be done also with not as much machine time but still quite a bit.I will see if I can get a quote put together just to see what it will cost.

Re: Aluminum tail light bezels,Three styles now.

classicchev and myself were playing with the set of bezels he bought from you, and I have to say we come up with something that looked kick-ass !!!!

We also had the idea of side marker light bezels. classicchev can e-mail you the dimensions.

How many sets do we have to buy to get a price break????

I have been playing around with different letter styles and sizes,but I cant get them big enough to be machined practically.I can make the center bar wider and engrave the letters in it,but no light would shine threw.Or just go with spades.

Are you going to do a set with the punisher skull cut out, similar to the iron cross?

If I did it would have to be a custom and engrave the skull then cut the eyes and nose all the way threw.
