You are very talented, got a question what do you use to make the plastic or are they glass lenses, and have you figured out how they will attach to the light bensel and have you made the bensal for them to attach to, and how do you get the different colors on the lenses? They are great, you have multi talents

Ehsan, that is absolutely amazing! How many of these parts do they typically make? Are they producing them for others or just for the cars they are doing?

These guys dont make many.. Around 10-20 per month depending on demand. They make them for their own Jeeps as well as sell a few.

Each time you post I think I've seen it all, then you post again and totally blow my mind all over again. I am speechless. I used to think I knew some stuff and had some skills, but wow, I am a mere apprentice compared to a Paki "denter"!
