We are now completely out of steel flares and are in the next two months going to run 100 sets from our better than factory precise tooling (I am sure everyone knows the story of how we perfected the factory tooling)
Anyway I am gauging interest in a club group buy to help offset the tremendous cost of production. As participants in the production run the price would be a cost plus one. Tell me who is interested please. Mark has been doing a fabulous job getting orders for the flares, and we are well over the minimum for a group buy. However please keep in mind that we only have two more weeks for you to get your order in! Also we need 12 more sets as of this date (jan 18th) to make it fly at the lowest cost, 550.00 per set. Maybe you know a friend who wants a set or to buy an extra set yourself to resell later! |

I can vouch that they are way better than factory. I would buy them again. To say you perfected the tooling is a stretch. They do need some work right out of the box.

No it is not, If you read the story you will know that the factory flares were and off right and left meaning not exact opposites. After we scanned the originals in Detroit at the same firm that scanned the ford gt 40 for ford, we combined the left and right programs and were able to spit out identical left and right opposite tools.
What you are writing about is the actual trimming of the stampings. Yes after they are perfectly stamped the trimming varies as it is done by hand.
