After much nudging from the community here, we are taking preorders for the 2010 to present Mean Mug Bezels. These will not fit a 2009 and older bike, unless you have the updated 2010 and up headlight assembly or the daymaker setup. Install is easy, and snaps into place just like your stock bezel.

Color options are Gloss or flat black only and they are $130 plus shipping.
Go HERE to preorder yours now! http://gascapitalcustoms.com/Products.html

************************************************************************
***UPDATE***

To all of you that have preordered, don't worry. Yours will start shipping on December 1st, if not sooner. Im still on schedule and nothing has changed, thanks for your order :)

To those of you that have not yet ordered,.. you will be able to do so again soon. For the time being, I have taken the order button down to keep from getting overwhelmed. You see, each one of these are built by hand one at a time, and there is nothing fast about it. They aren't being punched out by a machine, it is all manual hands on and each piece is built, sanded, primed, sanded and painted. I want to create good quality products, not just punch something out fast to turn a quick profit. With that being said, doing these in limited runs are the best way to achieve quality and be able to fill orders in a timely fashion, without burning me out on making them and still being able to do other things in the shop as well.
I have gone back and forth on this for a while, and even though I hate doing it this way,.. its whats best for everyone including you guys buying them.

I will announce very soon, when I will take another order for a limited run. I'm sorry for those of you that were just about to place an order, and I hope that you hang with me and still purchase one down the road. I believe that doing them right, instead of rushing them will pay off in the long run over just throwing out things to just try to keep up.

Again, thanks to everyone that has ordered, and for those of you that order in the future. :D

Don't worry guys,.. after the 1st of December, I will post up when the next run will happen. It won't be long,.. so by spring everyone that wants one should be covered :D Its just easier on my stress level to look and work on 20-30 at a time,.. then a pile to the ceiling.

Chain do you mind autographing mine so I can sell it on EBAY for a HUGE profilt :D lmao kidding, I'm def. not selling this. Can't wait to see it on my bike and I'm lucky I was in your first batch of orders!
 
#42 · (Edited)
Ummm, Chain, small problem. I clicked on the link to y'alls website to see if ordering was available again, and it just threw up an error message about not being able to find the site. Wanted to let you know.....and for the shelfish purpose of ordering one, LOL!

Granted, come to find out if I type in the main address, I can get the home page, and then I can go to products page, so no worries there, just the link it seems isn't working right. Oh, and the order button is still gone, LOL!

He was updating it probably about the time you were trying to get on his site. He will take orders again the 1st of Jan.
Until then I have to sit here and look at them all and hope I get mine by the end of 2013.

09 and olders are coming after the new year. Im working on the design and prototype for an "adapter" or conversion plate for the older headlights. This will take your current headlights in your bike, and installed on my adapter plate will allow you to run any 2010 and up bezel, Yaffes, Sinister's, Harley's, and Gas Capital Customs. These will come either seperate for people with other brands of bezels, or come as a kit with the mean mug bezel at a huge discount. Its all still in the design/prototype phase, but making good progress and the easiest solution I could find. No one else is offering a product like this adapter ring, not even Harley so keep your fingers crossed all works as planned and they will be available in the winter/spring of 2013 like I am planning.

Will we get an e-mail with shipping info when ours ships ? I was in on the first batch.
Thanks,
 
#62 ·
Yes, you will get a notification when yours ships to the email address you provided upon payment. They are being shipped out in the order that they were placed. We're not getting that out as fast as I had hoped,.. keep running into problems with the clear coat on the gloss ones which is slowing everything down. Im glad I said from the get go that they probably won't ship out till the 1st, because I'm cutting it damn close to fill this set of orders in that time. If I can't work out the problems with the gloss ones this week,.. I will ship all the flat ones out and keep working on the gloss. I will notify people on Saturday if their order had not shipped yet, and explain whats going on.

Awwright, I'm trying to save money these days due to a foundation lift on my place but I've decided I can splurge on wunna deeze. Sure hope I catch the post when you ramp up operations again.
 
#63 ·
Thanks for the update Chain! I ordered a gloss black the first night you opened up for pre-orders and I was just about to ask how things were going on production. I just have to be patient....LOL
Keep up the good work :)
 
#64 ·
Chain, thanks for the update! I ordered a gloss black bezel and I'm in nooooo rush to get it, thanks for giving us a heads up about prob's your running into, I always say quality trumps quickness when ordering certain products! thanks for being thurough as treating every piece you make as if you were putting it on your bike! :D
 
#66 ·
Do you have to clear the gloss ones ? Have you been able to produce any gloss black ones ?
 
#67 ·
All flat black orders will be shipped tomorrow. The remaining gloss ones are going into the booth tomorrow and the next day. Still hoping to start shipping out those on Saturday unless problems arise.

Peppa,.. those 2 that were posted by others,.. are the gloss black ones. Its something that may not be offered any longer, depending on how tomorrow goes.
