How did you do this to the taillight trim?



Is this just the spray-on lens darkener on the lens and the trim?

Same with the bowties?

Heh, if a person can afford a 100+K car, then gas and insurance prices will be completely irrelevant. Ahh, I can only wish I were one of those folks...

We have several different wheels and we did not just put our name on parts. If it was that easy you guys could all do it. Nothing on this car will be untouched and it will have over 700HP when we are finished.

I dont know you mr internet but at least you can read and thanks for hitting all the points for me. I guess if everyone would just take 5 min to read what we are doing it might have saved a lot of this.

This car will go for around $70K and all of you can do it yourself if you want we sell the parts and we sell them cheaper than you can buy them from anyone else. This car is supercharged, blacked out, 22-inch wheels, tires, 15-inch rotors all the way around with 6 piston calipers, racing suspension and performance exhaust. More parts are being added daily. Add up the parts and see what you come too.

Yes we have Camaros at the shop and we bought them all just like everyone else did. They are out all over the place you just have to do your homework.
Don't listen to the haterz. $70k for all that you've done to the car is reasonable. I think the $150k may be a bit over the top. Just throwing some numbers together below which may or may not be in the ballpark, but it is reasonable especially since you are taking the risk and doing the development.

base price 39,000
CAI 500
Exhaust 2,000
Brakes 3,000
Supercharger 8,000
Tune 400
Wheels 2,400
Tires 1,200
Cosmetics 2,000

cost 58,500
Sales price 70,000
pkg markup 11,500
Profit % 16.4%

Now, add labor, overhead (shop space, office space, etc) and I bet even with discounted pricing that they MIGHT receive, that their profit margin is slimmer than ~16%.

BINGO!!!!
I'm glad someone brought that up. People seem to forget about the labor part of this business. Maybe what these previous posters need to do is go to FESLER's website and see the awesome work that they do before posting their comments. Parts are one thing, labor is another.
