What is also cool is they have an ebay presence that is different than their other online offerings when it comes to shipping as well.

They have great prices if you are local enough to walk in.

Did you read the entire thread? The $31 is for shipping to CANADA. Trunk Monkey is shipping the striker covers anywhere in the US (including Hawaii) for $3.31

They are not worth ordering cross border. Your local dealer will not be too expensive on that part. I just ordered mine locally and they are $6.89 each, zero shipping. that was Friday and with two storm closure days here this week they still arrived from the Montreal distribution center this morning.....

We are keeping it going while waiting for a vendor to start painting them.

That should be good for at least 4 more pages.

Not a bad price though. Lupe does excellent work.

Yes. I picked 2 up earlier this week. Dealer had them in stock, and if I remember correctly, they were around $5.95 each.......

Is I difficult to wrap these with the rounded sides? I'm getting black ones but the carbon fiber looks nice

Glen e · 02-16-2017, 05:05 PM

Search YouTube,

use heat to make it stretch around the curve

TBH it's not bad, heat gun is your best friend, don't wrap the inside of the piece as it could have a hard fitting in. Other than that cut a small piece out and use the heat gun to work each part and take your time.

Hey, just wondering if these would fit the 5th gen Camaros. Pretty sure they will , they use the same covers on the Suburbans & Tahoes . Going to check them out Monday at work.

And hey guys I know it's just a $3.00 mod. But I'll tell you one thing when your doing car shows . These little details is what gets the attention of judges , trust me..
