    If he takes this cladding piece off to make a mold some pics of the camera mounting would be awesome!

    Ok, after a very busy day and now getting home. I talked to him today and he had a few things off my VX, he will start making a mold tomorrow of the insert or half moon. He said that the list is a rough estimate, but could flex a little due to the difficulty of the more complex (not straight) parts. Once he gets done with mine I can lock in all the prices with a for sure price list, but I believe for the most part, this is what we will be looking at.

    Half moon- $75-100
    Hood- $400-450
    Hood Insert- $200-250 Also if your wanting a scoop, I think what he will do is have you order whatever scoop you want and make a mold of it, to mold on to the hood mold. And then return the scoop, that way everyone can have what they want.
    Cladding- $1,500-2,000
    Mirrors- $200 This will not be a cover, but the whole mirror case and the bracket on the door that holds the mirror.


    I still don't have prices on the over cladding skid plates or tail light covers, because I don't have those and it will be about a month before I get the tail light covers to make molds. Also, he is looking into the interior pieces, since there is a lot of curves, and places for screws and tabs, he wants to make sure what will all go into replicating those.

    I will keep everyone posted with his progress as well as pictures when my parts are finished, I will be getting a call tomorrow on how the first making of the mold turns out.

    Thanks
