    Vxc...

    About 5 weeks ago Ron contacted me to see if I was interested in some plates... I put down a 50% deposit... So me thinks he's still taking orders for some, but I don't know for sure... I could have been one of the last orders??? (I hope not, as I'd like to order another set for the Proton depending on how this set turns out...)

    Drop him an email and see...

    He lingers -- happily -- in a new hybrid state of semi-hormonal adolescence and responsible self-reliance.

    Yeah, I will check with him soon. First on my list is new rims and tires, so it will be a while before I can afford the skid plates. Plus, one of my other hobbies is about to suck $1000 of spending money away from my VX. (So I am torn in other areas as well)

    Thumbs up

    I'm glad to hear that Ron is (possibly) still up and running. He's definitely one of the VehiCROSS saints and does beautiful work.

    those skid plates definately look awesome, and apparently they hold up pretty well too! (photo from anita's gallery)

    Yeah, see, that's the thing, if Ron is still making the skid plates, I should get a set, simply because they may not be available forever. Tone's bar on the other hand may eventually go away also. (although, Tone seems to be a 100% died-in-the-wool-VXer)

    I guess I will just have to get my new rims and tires first, then sit in the VX and meditate for a while. Maybe she will tell me what she wants to wear on the front end.

    I ordered the set of skid plates (front and back) from Ron about a month ago and they're supposed to be finished pretty soon. I can't wait to get them on. He's still making them, so if you do end up going that way, you're good to go. Good luck with your decision.

    Hey, well, don't take this the wrong way, but that brush guard just completely ruins the good looks of the VX imho. I love the front end of the VX so much, I really would hate to cover it up with that thing. On the other hand, having protection for my VX's bitchin' grill, lights and cladding is an attractive feature of that rig, but its just not my thing.

    I recall Tone saying he was gonna produce the brushguards on a per-order basis.... is this true? I wanted one, but it totally slipped my mind after getting my new car. Guess I will try to contact him.
