Hard-core CEG'er
well ive decided to start with doing molded fiberglass side skirts. these skirts do not have jack point covers.
they will look alot like keithr's set that he molded but will be of complete fiberglass.
ive started making the plugs for the molds.
these will retain the rear and side factory mounts but in the front they will use 2 sided tape to attach under the door. It was the easiest and cleanest way to attach the front. i could attach it like the razzi kit where it gets screwed down under the doors. but that left ugly screws and would make the mold and pieces more expensive. attaching like the factory front mounts, would mean i would have to secure strips of plastic or fiberglass to the inside in exactly the correct spots to meet up with the hangers under the doors. this adds time and materials making them more expensive. so thats why ive choosen 2 sided tape. should do the job just fine and make the skirt completely flush with the panel. they will come primed or gel coated.
price wise they should be between 200 and 300 for a set. depending on which type of resin and glass i go with. as well as how much glass is used. i want a product that is light and still has a bit of flex without it being super flimsy and easy to break.
for the first GB i would like to have at least 10 people interested. the more the better. i will have pictures up when i finish the plug, then the mold. then of the passenger side skirt, as it is the only extra skirt i have. if people are a go for this then i need to source a driver's side one.
