Yates I wish I'd have seen this thread before leaving for Moab...it was great seeing you on the trails at Cliff Hanger and stopped by the booth on Thursday but you weren't around. We did get to see the armor on the 2dr with the slider and loved it! Unfortunately for us we just did rear armor but it would be nice to see the slider as both an option with the skins as well as an option for those already running armor. Just my

funny I was skimming threads looking for corner armor and hadn't seen this yet. #latepass I guess but DAMN! you crank out those with the slider no logo cut out ( i don't care have a black Jeep) and the round lights and you can have my money for sure. I've been waiting so long for someone to throw a slider on a full set of corner guards. I actually got SUPER psyched after finding this thread! NICE JOB GUYS

I think I like the round lights better, maybe no blacked out. I have an LoD rear bumper with round lights. I am 38 so I guess I could go with oval too.

No license plate bracket.

Choice of JK cut out on Drivers side or Gecko on Passenger or nothing at all.

Someone mentioned a CB antenna mount. I think this would be a good idea.

I'm bummed I missed you!!! I was wondering if you guys decided to do more trails and just weren't able to make it. Thursday was a crummy day to be out of the office so I spent a lot of time on the phone.

Thanks for you input on the corner armor!

Yates

Im in love with the Round Tail Lights and the Slider Bar.

Whats the Drivers side look like? Is the bar shorter or just go over it with room for the pump?

Default Corner Armor Update

This is what we've decided to do on the corner armor.

1) Price point will be in the $350 range through distributors (Northridge, Quad, 4Wheel Parts, etc.) on the armor with out sliders. Corner Armor with the sliders will be $180 more.
2) We will offer both round & black, and the mounts will be standard for those folks that don't want our lights (but you'll still have to pick round or oblong because they are different). We won't have a recessed mount because they are not legal in some states.
3) The ORF or Gecko laser cut in the back is still up for debate. The Gecko is cool (I like that idea the best) but the ORF is better known.

We will not be able to do the JK-Forum logo for the pre-orders. I've PMed WOL about this and his counsel has advised him that he could have copy right issues if he allowed us to laser cut his logo into our corner armor for a small group.

Thanks for everyone's ideas! I've not replied to them all, but everyone was much appreciated. Your input is helping us better our products and company.
