Dash wire covers

Hi Joe

Really nice products you have there. Has there been any interest in a dash wire cover in carbon fiber? I've seen the most commonly used plastic ones, and don't like them at all. They seem to be too short, too narrow, and too flimsy. I'd be looking for one to fit my '57. Though I'm sure one size would fit many years beyond the ovals. Also, will your running boards and stone guards fit on my car (stock metal fenders, new heater channels)? Thanks.

A wire cover is one the parts I might be making a little later on, and yes the C/F running boards and stone guards will fit your 57 no problem.

are wire covers the same for all flat/steel dash bugs? I know the holes for the lower mounts are different, but does the general shape change?
