FRO Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 UPDATE 2/27/15: Ok gang...a little update for you guys. I've priced out new wiper cowls for other applications/vehicles out there and have found pricing for most two-piece configurations to fall between $120 to $235. Keep in mind that the ones I'm able to find are usually produced in extremely large runs numbering in the thousands, which brings down per-unit cost considerably. Our little community doesn't quite have that buying power/leverage, which presents a little difficulty on our end. But after crunching numbers, I believe I can get this project to fall in the $175.00 range for a brand new set of cowls, which will also include mounting accessories/hardware. I would need to order a minimum of (60) sixty units to achieve this estimated pricing. Shipping would be an additional cost as per usual. So, providing you're happy with the eventual prototype, who's game at this price point? Cheers and Thanks,Nick NikoFab281.627.6683nick@nikofab.com 1. TheDemon2. conquestador893. wolfsquest4.

creakyjoints Posted May 7, 2015 Report Share Posted May 7, 2015 Are these going to be injection molded? Don't really see any other way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quikconq Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 This will of course replace the stock pieces, so in that sense it will be an OEM style piece. But it will be a more contemporary design, especially in regards to the vent slats. Well I need to see,,,I'm interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuze Posted May 28, 2015 Report Share Posted May 28, 2015 Hey Niko you got a rendering or something? Just curious about how they will look. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87-88-89 Posted May 30, 2015 Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) I think once a render is done the wait list will grow like myself incuded. Edited May 30, 2015 by 87-88-89 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
devilsfutbol17 Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 (edited) I haven't driven my conquest or really started working on getting it running quite yet because of other projects, but I don't want to miss out on group buys. Seeing how this thread is 21 pages long, can anyone give a brief statement as to why we would want this wiper cowl? Does our factory one typically crack, fade, fall apart, or fail in some other way?

NikoFab Posted June 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Are these going to be injection molded? Don't really see any other way. No, injection molding is far too expensive. We just don't have enough people to make it happen. We'd need about 200 order up front to make that happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikoFab Posted June 3, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Sorry for the delay on this fellas. We took the brunt of the terrible weather last week here in Texas. Lost most of our appliances and possibly one of the cars. Give me a few days to recover, and I'll get back on this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDemon Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Chrisbasher, he has not had the chance to release an image yet but if you've seen any of Niko's projects tp date you should expect a clean modernization of the factory piece.

mooser83 Posted June 12, 2015 Report Share Posted June 12, 2015 I'm definitely in for one as well if its not too late. Car has been sitting for 4 years and just started to get it back on the road just this week and one of my cowl pieces is broken in half. The other one is held on by zip ties.
