Ok I'm shooting for right now to sell them for $75 for the Fiberglass pass. side scoop. This is not a definate set price but I'm trying to make it around this.

Also I'm shooting to have a mold ready tomorow night to start making these but that is not a definate either.

I will keep everone updated on this.

Sorry for the long time with no updates, things have slowed down, had a problem with the first mold, redoing the design just a tad but won't be noticeable, still working on them will have a update on it this weekend.

So how are you going to mount them?

I started this project a few months ago but got side tracked by other items.

Here's the mold I was making.


I was thinking of making 90 degree tabs which I would later on adhere to the cover.
I was going to do mine in CF.

Hey, on the CF, is it to be primered or will it be offered in gel coat? I'd really like to get a set gelcoated.

Just a comment... I've seen the headlight cover on ImprezedRS's car in person. It looks very good.

I just designed 9 of my own. Now all I gotta do is make some cardboard & wire mesh mockups/molds/ect, and make prototypes out of FG. I'll try to scan the scetches I drew and see if you guys/girls like them (and would pay me lots o moneys 4 tehm )

I agree... Please make a NACA type duct. On a straight cut duct with no flow testing, you could possibly get air that causes turbulence when it encounters the dip in the headlight cover at some random speed. (something to do with the laminar airflow detaching from the surface *shrug* -- my one aerospace engineering friend was trying to explain to me... right over my head)

In any case, goodluck.
