Ok I just talked with my friend this morning, and he has no problem making them. Only problem he sees is the part can not be laser edged with brand's name or there might be a trademark issues or something. Besides I will be the one doing the laser so..forget that!! haha I dont wanna get sued. So if you guys still want them in lets say polished or colored, he will be more than happy to make them...should be available in about a week. So email me to get on the list. In your email, list what kind of finish you want (polished or colored). Uhh...may as well tell me what wordings you want to put on, I will "try" to do it for you guys..but theres no garauntee.

ok all 4 surrounds are installed. 3 of them were a 1 minute job, the passenger rear was a b1tch cause after i unscrewed the golf tee the threaded rod that is the lock fell inside the door and got jammed up against the frame, i had to fish it back out.

(btw - to get around this problem i figured out the best way is to put the lock surround around the 'flashlight' lookin plastic lock, and THEN to screw it onto the screw that is inside the door, this way, you dont need to worry about getting in it in there with no control over how the screw is movin around.

hmm yeah...I just stop recieving emails all of a sudden. Maybe my spam filter finally kicks in with the subject "Door surrounds" hahahah
Anyways, I still have a few sets left (been saying that for a while but yeah really a few). So please PM me if you want a set, my email is killing me with all the spams.

As I stated before, this has to be the best "custom" mod I've ever purchased. And as Tom added, "the chepest (least expensive) custom mod!"
Tom, you da man. Gonna be sending you some stuff soon, just been swamped at the office.
