Default I'm in

Hi Gus,
I'm interested in purchasing your lens kit. Are they still available and, if so, what would be the price including shipping to Canada?

for the guys that have done this, can you please comment about your REVERSE lights? I know already the reverse lights on 964 are pretty poor, but does putting the vinyl on them make it worse please? Pictures?

Hi Gus, just wanted to confirm shipping in the US is still $10? So a total of $55? I'd like to pick up a set to cover my new lights. Thanks

dsan -
I have changed to POST (Priority) - so small drop in price - Now at $52.00 for shipment within USA. So kit is $45.00 and Ship Cost is $7.00 -
PayPal account is "gustavwf@mac.com" for payment
Make sure ship to address is correct.

Thanks for interest -

Is the film still available ?

The key is taking your time and not rushing as once you make a mistake and stick the vinyl to itself or the light lens in the wrong position, it can not be saved. Use plenty of the liquid "squish" on the plastic and on the vinyl - This is important because it gives you time, allows the vinyl to move freely to get the vinyl in the right position and check alignment - If you run out or think you are running low for the next section - mix your own in the spray bottle (5-8 drops of liquid soap and then file with water (slow). It is not the magic "Squish" but it will work. Use a hair dryer around the small raised letter areas and around the edges if you have trouble folding them over. On the edges make sure that most of the water is gone when fold the vinyl over the edge (warp over the edge from the front to the back). Here the little wooden stick with the flat edge works well to get in the tight spots - but works slowly and carefully. There is no problem in punching small pin holes to get the water or air out that has become trapped, but make sure you work the vinyl down good around the area. Once again I will point out the importance of having a chair and saving the beer until you are done - The chair gives you a place to sit as you admire your install job and you deserve the beer after the effort that you put forth. The jobs you have done look great. I have had my vinyl on for a bout a year and a half now and they still look good as new after I wash the car. Again thank you and I am please that you like the product - and that we have a solution to the PINK tail lights that has been an issue for all of us for some time.

^^ lol gus .. .well as long as the sun keep shining and OPC charges $300 a lens ... them rears will need tinting with your clever solution .. how many you sold now?

Take the total number of 964s - that number x "some propensity to save vs OEM" (say 20% IMO)
and you'll know roughly how many more to make

HiWind - really have not counted total. Sold about 100 first year, then sales tapered off. Selling at 1 kit a month now. Not enough to retire with. But, did not come up with this to get rich but as a solution for our pink tail lights. Business is for sale for $250k - I need to retire - LOL
