Thanks goherd. I love looking at all 3 TZ products on the front of my car.

TZ is correct. The fitment is not yet where it should be. One of the guys who helped put them on at Spring Festival needed to use his exacta blade to do quite a bit of trimming on the fiberglass to get them to fit. He had such a steady hand because he use to hand cut window tint.

If you look closely at the cover on the driver side, you will notice that the outside edge does not fully come up to the front edge of the casing. It makes me think that each type of 300 might not use the exact template for their parts. In the long run, it might end up being too expensive to perfect this awesome product to generically fit just right. I hope not because as you said, it looks far better than the flush covers.

One interesting observation is that with TZ's covers, it actually appears that I have halos (I don't) when the lights are on at night! That probably has something to do with that 3-D effect of the covers.

Anyway, keep up the great work on your beautiful car. It also looks great with the Grip Grille.

Yeah I've been wanting the lens covers for awhile now and since I have the color matched grill I want to keep the overall color theme going on. If you look at my car from the front (in my sig) the lens kind of stick out like a sore thumb....I guess we'll see once installed.

thanks for the compliments moose

If you're asking about the ones on my 300c in that track photo, well, they are not available to the public at this point. These are TommyZ's prototypes so I can't give you the price at this time. I'm not even sure he's ever going to make them for general sales. Sorry.....

I know he and goherd have been talking so who knows at this point.

Yeah I am not sure TZ is selling in mass as of yet? I know Bruno was the first to get some and I am like #2 or #3. To Bruno's point I am not sure if TZ will EVER mass produce since the fit seems unique on each car???? I've just been on him real hard the last 2 months on getting these and he say's they'll be done within a week.

Not sure on price to be honest???? If you are SERIOUSLY interested then PM him on this forum or the lxforum........
