He's offering a REALLY cheap price to do it but you pay shipping and materials. PM for more details.

I'll wait to see the finished product, but I'm interested.

I'll take pictures when I receive them. I placed an order with the Z store and had them shipped directly to the guy.

Question... Is it possible to have a custom logo cut in instead of the Z logo? I would slap my grandmother if I could get the Ohio State block O with a red light.

We did a set on some Maxima's a few months ago... I don't see why you can't be in the next group deal...

As long as your door sill pops out like ours does... Here is the link you can PM deadbolt and ask...

I would think you could find some base kick plates, without the aluminum design, they come straight black (i know this because I have a set) cut the Z completely out, then work from there, it would take some heavy modification skills.. I would think it could be done though.

just for a rough price point, my red IKPs are from back when Cjanik did them in 2010. i think price point-wise it was around $200, but he gave up b/c it was a royal pain in the arse to do without damaging the plates.

it actually might be in best interests to do a custom cutout! so you can just pry it open and not worry about anything because you'll be replacing with a new piece anyway.

Ok mine are done and on their way to me. Each side has 6 PLCC 2 LEDs in them which is apparently twice the stock size so they should be bright as hell.

The guy also said he forgot what a huge PITA they were and mine would likely be the last set he does.

Damn, I need some red ones to match my 40th.

They should arrive next Tues and I'll install as soon as they arrive and post some pics. If you like them, I'll give you the guy's email. Maybe offer him a bit more cash or ask really nicely or something.

NickBaragona · 02-21-2013, 07:58 PM

I'm not in any hurry, maybe after a month or so he will be up for another one lol.
