Nice to know you made an effort to make it as close to perfect as possible. Some companies would have let that 1/16th error slide and released the strips as is. Good to hear you went back and fixed this!

These strips look great! I couldn't wait any longer, so I tinted my amber strips 'smoke' color this past weekend to go with my smoked LED's Ares is working on for me.

Hope those clears come to market soon for those waiting.

The group buy was not started yet...I'm in the process of talking with the manufacturer (people who produced these and will sell these) and I personally think it should be ready as long as the one little problem was/is fixed (1/16 too short, which is enough to make the strip to move around).
Acree, the whole install was done with my cousin, it took us 12 hours to get it done. That includes the painting. The only thing I spent money on was the Hyper White bulbs and the spray paint cans. I do suggest that you do spend the $150 or even the $200 and let somebody who knows what they are doing. It is time consuming...and @ times very frustrating. I think pre-sale will be announced soon and I have not heard of a group buy...only pre-sale will get a discount from what I know. I will let you guys know as soon as the manufacturer says go.
