From the inside out!
Well I got snowed off the mountain since I had stuff to do before May 2018, so I have a day in town before I relocate camp for the weekend. I picked up the wrinkle black plates, the gloss black/clear will be done on Monday, and the red on Tuesday. I have a shipment of push fasteners in route as I misordered the 1st time. All should be ready to ship out next week. I just returned from the USPS and verified that I can ship these out to each of you for $15 including materials and insurance. That makes it easier than figuring each one separately. I have addresses for several of you and anyone else interested can send theirs any time. I will get my Paypal account set up the 1st of the week and will send each of you the info via PM. I will also post up some pics of all 3 once I've got them for any of you who might still be on the fence. I also have a clear coated aluminum for you @MiM. I was told that this should hold up well as the clear coat has a UV rating along with many other wonderful attributes that I forgot. We will be able to touch up the clear coat on the red, gloss black and aluminum with a rattle can of Cardinal clear coat that should be easy to source locally or online (I haven't checked on it yet). @Slingrazor I will get in touch with you when I have more time to discuss your thoughts.
I will start on these ASAP but am also starting a rehab on an empty rental unit on Monday so I will work through them as quickly as possible. Please be patient as you have, feel free to derail the thread as you have, and as soon as money is received, I will ship your plate. Cheers!
as soon as money is received, I will ship your plate. Cheers!
@SlingLow, just so I don't misunderstand, that's $50 for wrinkle black, $15 to ship, and you'll publish your PayPal info later?
Bazinga! Great news Doug. Thanks for making this a reality.
Thanks @SlingLow for all the time and hard work to get this accomplished!! Not to mention the numerous questions and always keeping us updated along the way!
Don't thank him yet. Yours might be pink and purple polka dots, and a month late.

After @Storm 's offer I think I left off a zero. Just kidding, that is correct. It will be $65 for the wrinkle black shipped and $75 for the red/clear and black/clear shipped. I will make my Paypal info available, hopefully by tomorrow.
I do have a dilemma on the push fasteners. The ones I have are 3/4" diameter shown on the right in the photos. The ones replacing them are 1/2" diameter like the Polaris fastener shown on the left. Unfortunately they apparently shipped on a slow boat from China as Amazon is showing a delivery date of Nov 16 - Dec 8. I can ship these out with the larger fasteners now or wait for the smaller ones. I could even replace the larger ones with the smaller ones once received. I don't want to hang this up any more than I have. Opinions?
And @Storm, I'll see where this goes - maybe we'll have something to talk about.
Also, based on the location of the fasteners and they are black, has mine already been drilled?

Yes, I drilled them all. I'm just not comfortable, liability-wise with not having the fasteners. A quick shot from a chrome/silver rattle can would likely make them much less conspicuous.
Oh, those? Might need a new thread...
I do have a pair I got from @Candyman I would let go for the $100 I gave him.
Depends on what you'll be selling those fancy ones with logo for...

I'm working it up now but it's looking like somewhere between $250 - $300 a pair. I need to get them to the powder coater for a quote.
I like the size of the larger pins. Better contact area.
