i'm talking to a guy who can make a mold of this then reproduce them. it would be more cost effective to have multiple pieces made.

if you have any interest please respond here and yes, i know it depends on how much they cost :P

Thank You and Have a Great Day :D

ok here's the scoop, $1000 to make the mold :mellow:

so unless i hit the powerball, get a donation for a company looking for a tax write off, or get 50 people to put up $20 each for this project i'm looking for another way to get this duck bill on my 85.5 -_-

i'm not looking to make profit on this, i just want these to be available for our beloved terdZ :P . any suggestions are appreciated ;)

 

PS he can duplicate the fiberglass cowl hoods too :D

Lol told ya it was gonna be spendy. Lol I recommend you attempt your own mold in plaster. And make them out of poly? Or liquid rubber of sorts. I have made a few prototype molds. It's not too hard. But they just don't hold up to mass production. But how many do you really think you will sell? 10-15? It would likely hold up to that if your gentle with it. Just my thoughts.

What about crowdfunding it? Throw it up on kickstarter. It sounds like you don't have the cash to throw down for the mold and then recoup through sales like a typical GB, but if you crowdfund it and post the link to the SQ facebook page, you might get enough to do it. Especially if you offer a backer reward of actually getting a finished product if they donate enough. Plus you could do a stretch goal of the cowl hoods, kill 2 birds with one stone.

We need to start figuring out this 3D printer s***. It seems like there would be so many car guy uses.

 

There are but the machines are crazy expensive. Especially to do large panels or body pieces. Not to mention the materials themselves.
