    Yes.. But only when aged to perfection :rolleyes:

    mercgt73, just a thought. How about a poll to see how many will be intrested? I know I know,, not annnother polllll.. Guess the price would also factor how many WOULD actually be intrested anyway.

    I thought about it. I'm not too worried about knowing how many people would buy them. I needed them for myself, and when I could not get them reasonably made, I had to come up with a hand-made solution.

    I could use a set for sure. Mine arent too bad but those are way better. Black is fine for me. Int. is blue but the other seals I have installed from AK are black anyhow. I honestly cant ever see anyone looking in my MAv and saying"hey those are suppose to be Blue" LOL.

    I myself would be interested in a set when I start on my 2 door (y).

    Now all I need is someone to start making seals for all the doors for a 4 door :D

    Did my first one-time cut seal today. This is the template I will use for the remaining seals as far as length. It came out great, just like the prototype I did before it.

    The corners go completely in and touch sheet metal all the way around.

    The pebble pattern looks so good, I can't wait to get a set painted.

    And look what else showed up today...

    I ordered more material so I can start making these seals. I will wait to announce the product until I have made at least half-a-dozen sets. I will definitely make a new thread announcement once I am ready to start shipping them out. Stay tuned for pictures of a painted set and an announcement of quarter window seal availability! :thumbs2:
