Did you have an idea on how long of a grace period you’ll give to people on the list before you move to the next available?

I will go through the list starting from the earliest. As I fill an order I remove them from the list and move on to the next one. If I don't get a response to my initial email I will probably call or text them. If there is no contact I will immediately move on to the next. That being said, if the customer contacts me and I have passed their turn I will go back and fill that order because they, indeed, had placed their order earlier. If I run out of a batch of lenses I simply begin where I left off with the new batch.

Keith, Are we close to shipping? I'm in the first batch. (Can't think of a nicer early Christmas / Birthday present for myself than the two sets I've ordered. Woohoo!)

Hey Mike. They would make a nice holiday gift and I don't see why we can't make it. We have a couple of days delay as the company only today shipped the packing supplies.

I'm anxiously awaiting my notification that my lenses are ready to ship. Been waiting through this whole ordeal and put the money aside during that time. A Fiero GT Nose Badge Medal of Honor has been earned by Goody.

While searching for a replacement tail light for my sister's Dodge Journey, it occurred to me that I have bought complete reproduction headlight units for my Dodge truck, my wife's Grand Am, tail lights for her Grand Prix, and a tail light for my Ford truck. None of them had any major manufacturer markings or approval or genuine product identification on them. They all looked identical to the original part. Don't know why they required it of a Fiero part except that they still harbor some ill feelings toward the Fiero. But kudos for going through the red tape.

I think i sort of understand what you are saying. The funds paid to GM and GM's significant involvement came from using the "PONTIAC". The word "PONTIAC" is obviously copyrighted and with that comes involvement in development, testing and so on. Had we not done this, there is no question the lawyers would have come after us with more than a cease and desist order. I think this might answer your question . If not, feel free to clarify.

Yes, that's logical. None of the lights I bought had any vehicle identification on them. The company, AutoAndArt.Com sells headlight and taillight assemblies for practically all makes and models of vehicles, and maybe that's why they never produced a Fiero GT tail light. Never looked to see if they did a 300ZX tail light.

Do you think you would have had to involve GM if you were producing lenses with plain black panels or with 3800SC or 4.9 V8 or LS3 V8 and the like?

GM gets a handsome royalty for using their name
