Not sure about a group buy, perhaps in the future. Also, I'm not really sure how long it will take to make one all the way to finish but to cast that one, it took me about an hour or so (had to wait till the epoxy flashed over to try to get the bottem to curl up and stuff). In anycase, like I said in the other post with all the pics, I'm not gonna be making any of these untill I finish finish the CF/kevlar stuff I'm making for/owe Jspecracer7 and Dragon.

BTW: Did anybody like the rear exhaust bumper guards? These come in different color as well, check out some pics below (BTW: that is dust on the pure cf ones, that's how overdue I am for making stuff for van and chris!). I think it looks great on Danny's (Rx7Elmo) car.



The yellow and red is kevlar, the real stuff baby! hehe
Kevlar comes in any color you want such as red, blue, orange, yellow, green (you get the point). So if you got a montego blue car, I can cast it in black carbon and blue kevlar Here are some pics of how this would look like.






(i did not make these particular peices btw)

You know what you might be able to sell a lot of... is a 99 spec lower lip that FITS the 93-95 bumper contours perfectly. If you ever have looked at a 99 lip on a 93 bumper skin you can see that it doesnt line up quite right.

Anyhow if you can make that, put me down for one!

*agree*

Not that I can count as a buyer, the next several thousand dollars I get will be going into elec's and motor. Nice stuff though, very nice.

the peices that I made are not yet clear coated hence the other ones are shiny and more 3D. And yeah, those are for motorcycle parts.

50 bucks on the rear bumper guard right? The Lips cost over 100 bucks just for the materials (this is with me cutting the stuff i have in to parts i used for individual peices, cost 100 bucks for the epoxy, 80 for the clearcoat, 20 for the pva, gloves, acetone bleh bleh bleh the list goes on and on hehe)
