So, is there an official way of placing an order? If not, what I want is a set of black ones with aluminum center, a regular crest and no laser engraving.

There are no words to describe how awesome this is!

Hi Fred,

Can you let me know if its possible to have the centre/centre in black with colour logo (I think you said it is) and how much to ship to the UK. I am definitely interested.

I applaud not only your engineering skills but your patience in producing the videos and replying to the techy stuff.

Terry

Hi Terry, yes absolutely feasible. Good taste if I may add I'll keep a kit for you mate. Actually planned on getting a few more done but somehow this overstock is getting lower by the day. Thanks for letting me know in advance. ps: you haven't seen the techy stuff yet, wait until I post vids of the machine cutting this thing high speed. Automation stuff.....

Haha thanks for the kind words! Painting the good side of things... not always fun aka-easy little porsche caps. Not only doing my own parts but also manufacture very complex parts (bike/motorsports + medical) to pay for that shop and software. Those parts that nobody wants to mfg here, or incapable of doing so possibly loll Hard work man...

No official way atm but Coming Soon! I had the eCommerce security & back-end done a few months ago but never really managed to finish a skin for that little tool. Here goes a quick preview of what it may look like (grid system, mobile compatible). This site is for the Projector kits really so don't expect to have those caps on there for more than two week! or less... I wouldn't be surprised

... pls don't mind the dummy text lolll That'll change, with the exception of the free shipping part

EDIT: wooof did I uploaded a pic of a non-released website?! What was in my morning coffee. Pic removed, for now.
EDIT: I'll pass on Paypal instruction once I got your color & made-to-order preferences (I'll PM, and post here)

Black for Bad... two bad options for us also! Personally prefer the B-on-B but saying this... I've never seen one with a silver center in person, yet anyway. Both look amazing, it is just making it harder for you to chose... is the only difference

Admit this is a brilliant idea!!!

Script can be made-to-order. However, "do your own" hehe. Here goes the sizing for the template you'd need to use for that to happen. Won;t accept JPG or anything pixelated. Has to be vector based and font included (or outlined at least). I have Illustrator and Corel here installed on the laser workstaion (*.ai, eps, pdf, cdr, etc)

That is seriously awesome! Unfortunately I'm in the Italian Alps skiing at the moment. I'm also quite lazy, so just black will be fine.

Feel free to sign me up for a set.

Any chance you still have the Red Sox graphic from my winshield? I do not have the talent myself to try and get that together in the template here - thinking that may look cool though on the red ones.

Would that be possible?
