    guess what i got?.....a whole lot of sweet fuck all..no invoice on the 10 bubble windows no follow up or any sort of reply on the email...BIG FAT NOTHING....

    so offshore i go..tailight covers are being done first and then windows..:crikey:
    Greg, have you contacted these guys below. This is a reply email I got from them a while ago for the rear tailgate tinted bubble window.


    Hi Sean

    Yes we do make these. Cost is $150.00 plus GST. Pack and freight would be around $60.00.
