Default Gratuitous pics, including custom Harvey Peck sills

Well, sorry for the delay, but below are the awaited pics of the Harvey Peck doorsills that were born of the stainless sills poll. Of course, since I had the camera out...

I got Harvey to make me a custom set with black trim and the crests. I'm floored by the way it came out; I think that it looks completely stock. They're definitely nicer than the similar sills in my brother in law's SC 430 (to the right in the first picture).

Euro driving lights. This is probably my favorite upgrade.

There's also a lot to be said for h4s. I can't wait until I get my iceshark cables in, too.

Those look great! (So does the car)
What's the price tag on those sills?

And here he is back home with his friends. That's a V-12 E-type on the left (not mine).

Only five more days of waiting to see my boy again...

Pete, check out the poll that I started two or three weeks ago on stainless sills. These are made by a guy named Harvey Peck, and are outstanding. I would rate them a steal at only $73, shipped. They also come without the black strip, or with "944" or "turbo" script instead of the crest. There are more pictures and a link in the thread.

I love that color. Got to see my old Stone Grey car this weekend again. I never tire of it.

I tell ya man, those are the best value for the money. I thought that when I got them over 2 years ago and put them on my car - they look totally stock and they look so beautiful...gorgeous car too man!

They do look sharp.

How do these attach to the car? Do you just glue them in?

Thanks for the kind words guys. I wouldn't even know how to begin to thank the board for teaching me everything I've needed to pick up in order to get this car back up to prime condition.

Phil -- They come with some seriously sticky, industrial-strength double sided tape already attached. Seriously, these are nicer than what Hans and Frans would have spec'd, and totally look like they're stock.

I've bought some too from Harvey. They look even nicer in person than these pix show.
