Default NEW Product for 2nd Gen Trucks!!!




Well, in my search for front bumper lightbar, I went to this site:
http://www.randyellisdesign.com/
and saw they made NICE light bars for the 3rd gen trucks..... after a few emails back and forth with the owner, I said something along the lines of "man,if you made those for my 2nd Gen, I'd buy one, so would a buncha guys from teh truck forums"....
well, he did it!!!!!
they arent available until end of May.... in "Near Chrome" and Rally Black....

in his email he sent this....

99% of the people on here, have no fabricating abilities, let alone do a nice job AND powdercoat it for that much money, only shipping is extra....gotta give a guy credit when his lineup is as small as his, that he went and did production work for an already out of production vehicle... as soon as I hit a 3 paycheck month, I am getting one...

having the design made $50
having the metal formed and powdered $50
having someone weld it up $50

having a bad a$$ light bar on your truck... $199.

yeah in all reality it's a pretty easy design and i could make it.. but my shop time is worth $10/hr... parts.. it would cost me about the same amount to just get it shipped to me.

yeah it seems like he is putting out at a good price... not trying to advertise for him but personally i'd be willing to pay him $50 to save me the time of designing ordering parts and putting it together.


[edit] mechanical engineering design.. that's what i do.
