Introducing the new and improved mercury mesquite, it's more daring, it's bold, and its absolutely FULL of flavor. Try one at your local Ford Lincoln Mercury dealer today, and prepare to be...mestiqued....

I like how everyone complains that companies dont make enough product for our cars, but when an opportunity comes around for something to be made nobody wants to do the slightest bit to help get the ball rolling. You dont have to like every product made for a car. Just having an extra thing made for a particular car is a starting point for more things to come out. With 80 percent of ideas being shot down by everyone nothing will ever be made whether it is tasteful or not. Every product or a mod that someone doesn't like is automatically rice. Well then a turbo must be rice too because imports cars are one of the main reasons they exist because of factory implications.

Umm, if you think that very badly written petition is an "opportunity" to get something made for our cars, then I'd like what ever you're smoking. And turbos existed long before imports.

I signed strictly for the support. The fact that it looks like a second grader wrote it may or may not hurt the effort. I also don't think the lights would look good on our cars. I lean toward the Hightower ones. But I do think that out of a dozen or so signatures, it's kind of funny that most of them are anonymous (mine included-but at least I'm admitting it here.)

Good call.
Yea its not the best written, and could use some serious work. but nobody else is trying to get these things started. A few people who have said they are but never created anything for mass market. Altezza's for the most part are ugly, unless on a white, black, or red car. They usually look like trash. But before we had one body kit avaible for our cars, we weren't in no car magazine. Now we are, I wouldn't put the kit on my car. But its a start
And I also did sign it, non anonymous too!

My thoughts exactly.
I wrote an email to the author of the petition and gave him some inspiring words. If the petition is re-written correctly, and with a little authority in it, I would be more than happy to add my name to the petition, but not in the condition it is written right now.

The lights would only work if its carbon fiber inside with tint on the covers.Clear lights would never work with our cars and how would you match the center section? You would have to get 3-4 different sets made.
