Hello there..
Found these lying around the other day..

We are already working on the Die and hope that would be ready for the press soon..

 

[Mr McGee]

SWEET!!!

 

[Plowboy]

You can probably fill a container with just those stamped bezels

 

[fj40john]

Any idea on how much these will cost??

Lookin' good Ehsan Post some more pics as soon as you get some more

 

[55 guy]

Depends on the cost of the die.. Buy I dont think that it will be too much.. If there is a big ,arket then the price can be pretty reasonable...

 

[Macgyver]

Ehsan, when are you gonna realize we want you stateside and pack up your buddies and work out of my garage????

 

[KeithF]

make sure you stamp a couple upside down for the ding-dongs that run 'em that way

 

[dog walker]

I have mine mounted upside down (I have know idea why) However, if I had one of those I'd run it upright!

 

[74_Chevota]

If the price was right then i might be in the market for one. Got to love the old-school bezels

 

[Landpimp]

Put me down as wanting 1-2 of those if ya make em. I would really like a fj45 soft top as well , I got a few sets of bows for a 40 but I think I would just get the whole shabang from you and save the 40 bows for a 40, hate to hack up a decent set of bows.

MAN you guys are amazing........

5

I'll take 5 and am sure I can sell more of them for you.

 

[orangefj45]

this might be way off the wall, but why not make them slightly different than the original?!
that way the "purists" can't bitch too much and the originals will retain their value!
everybody happy?! never, but worth a shot.

put me down for one.

I agree. Maybe use the font that early 70's FJ 55s had on the side LandCruiser emblem

If they can be reproduced *exactly* the same as the original, why would you want them to be slightly different?? Just curious, I'd think that people would want them to be EXACTLY the same.

One of the coolest effects that Ehsan's products will have on the Cruiser market is to stop the rampant speculation on certain parts. During "the Madness" (1998-2001) I saw sets of OEM soft top bows go for $800, tailgates for $550 and stamped bezels for over $300....sheer insanity!

Gozzard and Pardi's bezels already look *exactly* the same, the only way to tell them apart from a nicely painted OEM one is to touch them. If Ehsan can make them exactly the same in all aspects and still sell them cheaper, everybody wins, except perhaps those that have hoarded the OEM ones for speculative purposes....

This isn't a flame, orangefj45, I'm just curious!

who knows, i subscribe to both theories, and then again, why not have something different?!?!
