Update guys!
OK, here is the low down on the trunk lids, I have two that are 90% completed, they will be finished between today or tomorrow, we are molding out the third one today, so we are pretty much up to speed on these trunk lids (we were not able to repair the first two trunk lids, these are totally new). We didn't spray them down this weekend with the automotive clear coat because it was still raining, we just got a break in the weather this morning so we are ready to go
Oh and I also wanted to mention that they look awesome, the shine that they have out of the mold is a show quality finish, this will all be worth the wait.
I will upload some pics later tonight.
Thanks!
Jose.

Yea I just saw that too, Daec is first in line, then we have Casey and Brian. I am still waiting on some payments from Michael. I will make sure to get all three shipped out this week About the two trunks that we scrapped, it's all a part of business, we can't win them all, but we can make sure to put out a quality product.
Thanks!

HI!
I'm as anxious as all of you guys to get these shipped out, I didn't have a totally finished trunklid last night so I didn't snap any pics yet. I'm pretty sure that I will have at least the first one finished today and be shipping that one out, and ship the second one tomorrow as well. So I will definitely have pictures posted up today
Thanks guys!
Jose.

the bodyshop just told me i could come by tomorrow and check out the car, and then i would be getting it back by mid to late next week. if the trunks ship in the next few days, that will be PERFECT

Hi guys!!
We were finally able to spray them down with clear coat, here are some pics of how they looked before they were sprayed down http://www.ionicdynamics.com/5thgenCFtrunk.html
We had to wait because there was still too much humidity in the air and I didn't want to risk anymore setbacks. They are being cured and will be polished today. Monday will be the shipping date for all of the trunk lids, they will go via fedex ground. (If I have a chance to ship one out tomorrow I will)
I'm happy to say that they look awesome
Thanks for the patience
Jose.

i asked Jose to put holes in mine when i sent payment, and he confirmed that he would make sure he put the holes in. i dont know if he did it for all of them or not. i assume he would, but then again, what do i know. ive been tryin to think of ideas the last few days on what you could do to light it up if you dont have them, but aside from cutting, i got nothing. i have faith in him tho, for mine cuz i specified, not sure about you guys tho...

nice!!!
Jose,
Great job man... sorry about what happened to the other lids. Hopefully you can salvage them for a different project. The new ones look great. Glad everythings come together. I think the liscence plate holes being drilled in should be standard. I didnt want the keyhole in mine anyway. I'm definately looking forward to getting mine for the show set in the spring! I've got some real $h!t to show you guys!!!
Jose you can e-mail me or call me about that other thing when you get a chance. Keep up the good work...
