Good luck...
Oratoro made them, but I don't think he's had a new once recently. They pop up in sales here and on ebay every once in a while, but they usually go fast. Nish Designs makes them too...
Anyway, best of luck in finding one.

I wrote an email to Nish Designs, inquiring about ordering. We'll wait and see if they get back to me.

No kidding? Jesus....why don't people bury their dead e-businesses. That drives me nuts. Anyway....I'll keep looking. If anyone else has an online source, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

It sounds like you are looking for something like the damd smoked cover.

Either way, both are hard to come by. The damd requires the bB headlights.

Currently no plans to make any new FFF in the near future. Just no time with a new baby and the large back- order of VIP tables I still need to make. Also working on some new items for the xB and soon to be the tC.

Thanks for your interests.

well, the lack of customer service says otherwise...

but if you can get a hold of him, please tell him there is def a demand for his products. (me being of them)

Well, I shouldn't say anything just yet otherwise my mailbox will be filled with PM's but I'm happy to say that I have started the next batch of FFF. I'm sorry to say that the first ones will be for locals only until the custom shipping boxes are ordered and delivered.

Keep an eye out for them as they sell out faster then I can make them.

As many of you know I only make these (FFF) in small batches and every 3-6 months at a time. Well, I'm happy to say my next batch has started. Only a limited of them will be made. First come first serve.

Keep an eye out for them.

Thank you.

Thank you.
Any chance that you might consider FFF for Sonars?
And in OEM colors?

I have seen a couple of your work, and it looks First-Rate
