I have Dapper headlights and the fog lights too and they are definitely some very nice pieces. I highly recommend to others to spend the extra coin on these. I guarantee you won't be disappointed.

Ok ... super excited and happy about how the interior is coming

No cutting any corners here ... reinforced backing to ensure the pleats are perfect and remain that way

That does not look like the older ones I've seen, hopefully the quality isn't slipping. I know these are coated black, but the welds are nearly invisible in comparison to yours.

Jody ... have to admit I was slightly disappointed with the finish.
Even on close-up, yours have NO visible welds.

I literally waited almost 5 months for these, they are WAAAY backed up and as you have suggested looks like quality is taking a back seat to production.

I've sent a note to the guys at SpeedTech
