Hey guys im speaking to someone i know bout making a set for me out of fiber glass. and if the work is good enough he will be keeping the moulds to make more . so if it all goes to plan he will be working out a cheap price and be using me as a distributor for him to this forum. again its not official yet... but hopefully soon it will be
if you can get them made, and be good quality etc etc you probly have a market. get a prototype made up, and post pics of before fitment, after fitment and painted as soon as you can.
Thats the plan mate. h will be putting a black pigment into the mix so painting wont really be an issue straight away. But yeah ill be giving him mine this week so he can make the mould. if things work with the standard blaxk pigment other coulors will be available made to order. i guarentee there will be no profiteering on my behalf... just his price when it happens
GOD YES. New ones are so stupidly overpriced. In for a pair or maybe just the passenger side pending how well I can recondition my (in tact) driver's side.
Should be popular as these are always a popular group buy item. Cost of the clips is also ridiculous from Nissan. I've found COZ is he cheapest but you have to weigh it up against the shipping cost.
I have a heap of the round ones, but still waiting on those little square sods.....very hard to get at a reasonable price.
Ill grab a set as a spare ive already gotten a set from the recent group buy but would never know when a new one is needed i would get it in gloss black Abraham
Martin i personally dont think spending over a grand on second hand recaro seats and vielside exhaust is a good buy but people still do it...everybody is different and entitled to their opinion and buying options...their money their choice...i would rather spend $50 or so extra for a spare cowl set which are easy to break rather than wank factor as in owning a piece of history Abraham
Ok anyone in wa have a spare passenger side window cowl that i can borrow for bout a week or 2 to get this thing started? I tried to get mine out in one piece but it was too brittle and is in a few pieces now and some bits missing...:'( I WILL RETURN IT
Dude, windscreen cowls don't break once you put them on - apart from 20 years of sun damage. Why would you need two? :\ I'm pretty sure most of the people on the forum would support OEM Recaro's and a good brand name exhaust...
I have seen a new set of cowls break when they were taken out...and whats the problem if i choose to have a spare set? Dont think its going to kill anybody lol My view on the whole recaro seats is that why pay 1.5k for a genuine used set when you can buy a brand new set for the same price or cheaper...same goes for the exhaust, why pay 1k or more for a second hand exhaust (which does sound good) when for cheaper you can get a full exhaust system custom built? Thats my personal opinion...dont need to agree with it back on topic...the producer would have a good market if they are successfull in making these Abraham
The major damage over time is caused more by battery fumes rather than the sun. That's why the passenger side one is the one that always falls apart
