Anyone ever think of making a billet trunk hinge?
 
There are so many nice pieces for the camaro, but no one that I can tell has ever made a custom bullet trunk hinge. Anyone want to start making any? :unibrow:

we are working on them now, should be out soon. I will post them up here as soon as we have them. I have a ton of parts coming out for the Camaro's, Mustang's, Chevelle's and Nova's to start

I don't think the market is there. Who has there trunk open at a car show, unless you have a high dollar stereo. I wouldn't spend my life savings on tooling but adding it to the hood hinge line up might be a smart idea for those in the game.

Already in the works for us so no turning back now, I will put them on the cars I build and if people want them great if not no biggie. Its just one more cool part to make your car different from all the others. :cheers:

I would have to disagee, I think there would be a market, granted not like the hood hinges, but as you stated the hood is opened more often at shows and what not, but I think there would be a lot of people that would like to see a high quality piece.

I’m interested! Can you PM me a picture of what they look like and possibly a price if you have one?

We kind of agree........I am not saying you can't sell them. I just wouldn't base my business on it. It makes perfect sense to have matching ones like Fesler is proposing.:thumbsup:

Yep, just one more thing to buy for the car. :P

I like the idea...

Hey Chris, can you make some billet side mirrors? Now that's something I would like... ;)

slck6t9 03-20-2008 08:20 PM

I like the idea also. I would like to see someone make some billet sill plates in different varieties.
