The newest additions to my interior, what do you guys think?

 

I'm really lovin the door sills!

 

Nice, your giving me ideas Where are the floormats from?

 

Niiice, I like the door sills, I'd polish them and try not to step on them though

 

I think I am going to polish them, just wanted to get them in to see how they looked. The floormats are from www.ussppeedonline.com but it looks like they have them made at a place called Loyds mats.

 

where did ya get those door sills From

 

where did u get the door sills , i love them . dont tell me their custom and i cant get them . And if they are custom i want a set, if they arent too much .

 

the door sills are a custom piece a guy in my local f-body club made

 

Could you ask him what he used to cut and bend them that would help me out alot

 

Prolly works at a metal shop and has access to a sheer and a brake.

They look shaweet! Inspiration

 

thats sweet, nice idea

 

I want a set of those door sills!!!!!

 

I'll see if I can get some more info from him next time I see him, but he just went on vacation I think so I'm not sure when it will be. I think he has like 2 more sets, I'll have to tell him just to sell them on here...

 

I'm loving those door sills! Tell him he's got at least one set sold if the price is right

 

Like the sills. Talk him into making more sets and selling them, I'd be interested if the price is reasonable.

 

Tell him he could probably make good $ selling them on Ebay. A guy in out local club was making items like that for 4th gen and making a killing on ebay.

 

do you have any closer pics of the door sills?

 

1 more person that wants those door sills..........

 

 

I love the sills, Id need more metal in the car to make it look right though, Mine are wrapped in tweed to match the rest of mine now

 

Hell yeah.. one more for the sills baby... !

 

to me..they give it a more "old school" look....like how they used to look back in the 60's & 70's

 

Make that two...

 

Well it doesn't look like he is planning on making more of these, but I think he has a set or two left I might try to take of his hands.

 

Sweet sills dude!

 

man I want some of those sills to!

 

Yeah, those aluminum sills could make a lot of money! They're really sweet looking and I know many people on here have searched for something like them for a long time. It also looks like they'd be compatible with 4th gen seatbelts that don't have the bottom retractor.

 

Alright guys I'm bringing this back from the dead to let you know he made a limited run of these (I think 10 sets) and put them up on ebay. Here is a link to his auction

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...spagename=WDVW

Mods, if this isn't allowed please just let me know and I'll take down the link and send info through PMs.

 

i just bought a set...i had planned to make my own set but don't have the time. hope they are nice and i won't have to modify them.

damn paypal and their sending limits though.

 

Just placed my order, can't wait to get them.
Now if he would could talk him into making those dash trim rings like powermite has...

 

Amen brother ! I'd buy those as well.

I read that vic hubbard had / has them but could never find them on the site.

 

Cause I don't like them. It looks too plain. Now if it was made to look like the stock ones, that's a whole other story.

 

LOL over $70 for some Aluminum sheetmetal with 4 bends a little cutting and drilling 4 holes? Not to mention it was all done by laser cutter. This is the easiest and fastest money this guy ever made... Its like 90% proffit... hahaha

 

your so smart then make some, charge half or even 10 dollars less then.....don't just sit there and complain or critique, do something about it.

 

I second that, although I tend to agree with Knyghtmare's comments and this guy is probably making a considerable profit on these sills. HOWEVER, I for one do not have the equipment, or access to the equipment, to produce something like this. Making bends in long sheet aluminum like that would be very difficult to do without a good metal brake. And laser cutting, don't have one of those laying around the garage either. A pair of hand shears just will not give quite the same quality of cut.

 

yes these aren't cheap but they aren't as expensive as some that are out there with similar appearances. for someone who doesn't have the time they fit the bill. be interesting to see what they look like in person.

 

As for how they fit in person I can say they fit extremely well, think they use 1 less screw than the stock one. They could stand to be cleaned up and polished some but I definitly think they were worth what I paid.

 

cleaned up and polished they will be....

 

Hehe, I'm just saying that I need to get into this business!!

 

yes you do...

 

I'm thinking of going for a brushed look.

 

sounds good, everything on my car will be polished or painted though. the brushed look would look nice as well if done right.

 

count me in for a set . saweeeet . im thinkin of a very high polished finished . Almost like chrome . They will look sweet . O crap i just thought of something . They could be powdercoated , mask it off and have trans am powdercoated on there. And then clear the whole thing.

 

I know what i'm fabbing up next down time i get in the shop, definately a clean look

 

aww shoot, I missed out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The bidding closed.

 

See if he can make some more I miss the ebay auction also..
ThanksTL504

 

I emailed the seller and he had a couple of sets left! I got one of them!

 

Very nice--I especially like that set in the E-Bay foto with the roll bar, nice match of aluminum and chrome. What roll bar is that?

 

Just wondering if anyone has got theirs yet. I recieved mine last week. I have not tried the fit yet but I am a little dissapointed in the "Laser Cut Edges". They are alittle on the ruff side plus not completely strait. All and all I will be satisfied after I clean up the edges and polish them. Just wondering what everyone else who has them thinks.................jt

 

Got mine over the weekend and I'd have to agree with jtmiller's comments on the edges, they are a little rough, however, the edges on mine were straight. Some filing/sanding will be necessary to give the edges that "finished" look. Not entirely sure what "Laser Cut Edges" should look like, but thought they would be smoother, more finished.

On the plus side, they are a nice heavy guage aluminum, and all the bends on mine were clean and straight. Have not had a chance to fit them up yet, too many other priorities right now, but a visual comparison looks very good.

Overall I am satisfied, and think that they will be a dramatic improvement over the stock plastic when finished. I would not recommend them as a "bolt in" product as finishing the edges along with some cleaning and polishing, or "brushing", will be necessary.
