I hope to sell them to some of the vendors that cater to the Cobra or Corvette and also sell Hooker headers.
It will be to costly to ship one set only. As soon as I have the Stingray shields done I will post pictures also(about one week). Then I will see if some of the supply houses are interestad in stocking them. Either way I will let the forum members know what is happining.

These are awesome
1.5mm stainless ??? At least you don't have to worry that they get bent during shipping
what do you think how much it'll be for a set shipped to the US ??

Those look awesome, If only for the fact that I don't have sidepipes I would buy them instantly

I'm not a big fan of those cheesegrater's sidepipe covers... but, those I would put on my car. They look awesome.
