We use a urethane plastic and paint that is UV resistant. :nod:

Aha you are the man!

Anybody have a cluster hood, in as close to flawless condition as possible, they're willing to let me borrow for a few weeks? I'll start on modelling the hood so we can deliver them as soon as possible, since it's apparent that everybody wants one.

I am interested in replacement plastic pieces for all of the interior as well as fender liners.

PM sent on cluster hood.

Firstly, I'm very glad you're undertaking this endeavor :icon_tup:

Secondly, you're at the point where you'll need to consider a vendor account here on the forum. It's pretty reasonable, inexpensive compared to most car forums. PM me for more details please :)

Hey all,

Sorry for the lack of communication recently, we had some computer issues that were a bear to fix.

The part is live in our shop!

The price includes shipping and you can expect things to ship out within 1-3 days of being ordered. As we fill orders we'll work on other parts, and we're open to suggestions on what the next project to complete should be. Currently, we have the visor dowels and door triangles on deck and progressing. We'd also love to hear feedback about the parts - what you like, what you would change. We want the community to be happy with what they receive, so if you aren't we'll do our best to make it better! Thanks for the continued interest, everyone. Stay tuned for more updates on what's to come.

Ps, the coin holder/center console piece is definitely a front-runner for the first big part. :nod:

MattGold was kind enough to trust me with this '94 cluster hood and bezel - he also sent visors! Somebody send that man a case of beer.

Currently working on getting as many scans as possible to start work on developing '93 and '94+ finish cluster hoods. Is this what everybody wanted to see?

You produce 94+ LHD cluster hoods and they'll make a bronze bust of you and put it in the lobby.
And Matt should sell me that extra when you're done with it....top dollar.

Yep!

Someone send this man the center panel so he can remove the exhaust temp and security buttons.

cbarilone 09-23-15 10:24 AM

First time posting - I'd put myself on the list for 1 or 2 of these covers.

Project88Turbo 09-23-15 02:21 PM

I'd be down for a 93 finish hood depending on price.

Atkins sells them

technomentor 09-23-15 07:22 PM

I have a NIB 93 finish center/shifter panel you can use for scanning if desired.

Options some members may want to see:
- remove buttons, 1, 2 or all 3
- version moving AC controls from AC panel to shifter panel
- version that includes place for Apexi Power FC controller

These mods have been done in the past and threads can be found on the forum.

I'm interested in the plastic pieces on the left door panel. Mines cracked and fell off..

reaper60606@aol.com 09-25-15 10:16 AM

+1 on the visor clip. Mine is broken too (drives me insaine)

Is there a group buy on the cruse control blank switches. I'll buy one now!!

reaper60606@aol.com 09-25-15 10:19 AM

Another bad ass piece would be a blank adapter for the cigarette lighter. I never will use mine and it's sort of broken

They're available for purchase on their site:
Cruise Control Blank ? Niche Motoring


Mine just showed up the other day - quality piece! :icon_tup:

I have enough on my plate currently, but I'll definitely consider it in the future. Thank you for offering!

We're working on the front door triangles. Not sure what plastic you mean exactly, but the door cups are an option we will explore.

The visor dowels are proving to be quite annoying - they're so small it's hard to actually create a surface that will bond well and keep them from separating in the future. The clips wouldn't be too hard, but I'll save those for another day.

This is a good idea. A simple piece that cleans up the console. I'll look into it.

reaper60606@aol.com 09-25-15 07:16 PM

^^ sweet deal. I'll snag a lighter plug cover as soon as it's made!

7krayziboi 09-25-15 10:44 PM

I really like where this is going ! It's crazy ! maybe a AC Button delete plug ?

Mty Mous 09-27-15 09:29 PM

Sub'd

Heedlessone 09-28-15 12:45 PM

Just for fun, we mocked up a plug for the cigarette lighter. Any thoughts on this?

Would be cool if it was even larger diameter-wise - and hid the entire ring / sat flush.
