Hey guys, I work at MimoUSA. I monitor our company PR using Google Alerts that is how I found this post.

Our product is made right at that warehouse by the dock ... in Staten Island NY.

We've had amazing feedback about the corvette dash kit. I really mean it. If you are interested in a group buy, I can organize a special price.

It's not clear which of your products are available for C4 Corvettes, can you clarify this?

Note this is glow in the dark powder that needs to be mixed into the clear coat. As for what is available, I recommend doing a search from the homepage for your vehicle's year and you will see what we have. We don't have a whole lot only what we manufacture and import. Note that the dash kits / pillars / eyelids are made in US. Other products are from China (including Glow paint)

If you want more stuff, a good dealer of ours has this website www.autoaccessorystore.com

Received my dash kit, very nice quality, fit's very well. I did e-mail Igor and Lee that their was a piece missing from the diagram that I thought should be there and if I could get a 6"x6" piece of the same material I wanted to make a small piece myself. E-mailed a couple of time's but did not get any responce from them.

Mike...just a casual observation....perhaps less time on Google and more time on Outlook might be prudent......
