Not discouraged a bit. You can't please all the people all the time. Anyway, I value comments posted here on ecomodder higher than any other forum.
Thanks to all for your support and encouragement,

Thanks for making this cap, there are plenty of other people who can appreciate it. If you sell it with numbers comparing it, like Metro's other thread he put up recently, enough people will buy it.

So Sad
Bondo,
I am glad you are not discouraged.
It would be a shame for this product to become unavailable due to some negativity. I am sure that there are plenty of good products that have been killed in their infancy due to negative feedback.
I said in one of the other threads, that person to person, or one on one, people as a whole are intelligent. But when you get a group of people together, they all drift toward the lowest common denominator.. This is just a sad reality.
It is refreshing to come into a Community where everyone is trying to be a little better today than we were yesterday.
When you get this to a point you can offer it to anyone, I know a Toyota truck owner who has asked me about the mods to my cars, and I am sure he would love a Bed Cover to improve his FE.
Keep up the good work.
We are all pulling for you.
Tell me how I might help.(keep in mind I work all-d-dam time, and live on the east coast)
Don't let the comments of a few RedNecked CaveMen deter your path.
oh and
Have A Good Day
S.

You know what? I think they're probably getting info from us talking about it right now.
I wouldn't mind at all to have that cap. I'm a liftback/fastback kind of guy anyway (AE86 Fan).
I hope they see this, but Jeeps kick Toyota FJ's @$$'s!!!!!!

I don't think the average poster in that thread is in any danger of "getting info".

Brett's cap
Brett's cap is form following function.People who would criticise the cap would probably be critical of fish,birds,canoes,kayak,arrows,darts,footballs,gol fballs,sailboats,ships, submarines,airplanes,jets,NASCAR,Indycar,GTP,Formu la-1,turbo-chargers,turbo-generators,turbo-fans,commercial passenger jets,bullets,artillery shells,missiles,rockets,windturbines,sailplanes,ba seballs,water pipes,air ducts,electic fans,etc.,which all derive their "appearance" from the functions they perform.And they're right,we shouldn't have any of these things cause they're all effeminate and petite,and very un-manly with their curves and such.In fact,I understand that ACME Brick company has struck a deal with the sanctioning body of the NFL to produce the next generation football.Gone will be the double-ended sissy ball with its girlyman teardrop ends! The new projectile will be modelled after the HUMMER H-1,with all square corners,Cd 0.85,and throwing range of 10-yards.That ought to satisfy the needs of those manly of men.

Sadly enough, I'm pretty sure you're right.
