And FWIW, beggars can't be choosers. You either pay to play and get what you want when you want it, or you can sit around hoping someone will either not know what they have or will sell theirs at a give-away price rather than list it on eBay and get top dollar for it.

If anything's a joke, that ^ is.
Anyway, I don't want to post anymore in this thread. I don't like having to defend values/pricing amongst cheapskates and people who don't know any better. If anyone wants mine and can afford it, feel free to PM me. It's minty fresh- it's on a 21k mi car. Thanks

FWIW i bought one of the 52 mm pods from ortizcustom and i was not satisfied with the finish. its a perfect fit because its an actual oem part, but it seems like they just cut some pvc pipe and fitted in the "radio slot" and used some type of molding to hold it in. The paint finish was just straight up spray paint. it had a very gritty and rough feel to it and i could still smell the paint when i opened the box. almost felt like a rushed job.
Im having to wet sand this down to get a smooth feel and bought some better paint.
For the time and money im spending to get a smooth professional finish on this pod i probably could have made one myself. Just an option for you if you dont want to spend all that much.

Tooling was no longer any good and tooling is very, very expensive. There simply isn't enough interest in these pods to offset costs.
Mad?
How is it a pointless one-sided argument? Several idiots who didn't know any better balked at the price I listed. I shared why my price wasn't unreasonable.
