    Carbon fiber look would be fine with me. Would prefer a scoop but I suppose we will look at that later. My vote would be a 4runner style scoop. I think a scoop like that would match the curves of our car perfectly

    Wow, totally missed this thread. Very cool. Keep us updated. Think I might be interested in sideskirts and rear plate.

    Cheers!

    Those actually look pretty nice. I might even consider a front skid plate just so I can run without a front license plate.

    UPDATE: skid plates and hood insert

    Well, I can breath a sigh of relief, I have the molds, (arrived today) and most of the supplies needed to start. Just missing a few items like the duratec primer and hi gloss gel coat additive. The molds are a bit rough, so will have to work them to gold plate them and make them glass smooth. Will then make a master set of plugs and molds to set aside. As far as the hood insert go, am working with a local supplier to source the mounting hardware. Want to duplicate the OEM mounting as close as I can since they have already done the engineering on it. Anyway, that is where it stands for now.
    Greetings, Earthling. We come in peace... Never mind "Paris to Dakar", the VehiCROSS looks ready for the Martian desert.

    You are doing an awesome favor for the club. Thank you
    You have to "gold plate" the molds?
    Please don't forget the hood fangs...unless I am the only person wanting them.
    Have a nice Holiday!!
