    Cool Big News from third_shift|studios and GM

    For the last 3 months, third_shift|studios has been awaiting notification from GM's legal department on the status of our liscensing agreement. Well the news is finally in! We'll become 100% Authentic GM Accessory Parts by January. GM liscensing comes with some heafty expenses which have forced us to increase pricing in 09 by about $5 per emblem. With this price increase you can expect our turn around times to improve drastically as we're acquiring another cutting deck this winter. This is a really exciting time for us and we're truely looking forward to continue serving the LSx crowd with our increasingly popular custom emblems.
