Yes the plan is to use fiberglass. As far as being feasible and affordable that is the plan. If I can successfully create a mold then repeatability will be possible. Is this a DIY thing... no. The plan is once I make the process work for me I should be able to produce something and be able to provide it as a bolt on for people if there is interest. I would only do that if I was satisfied with the quality of it. I'm not running a business here so I'd have to worry about people reacting the same way they did to Milan when he did this for people. Grant it if I remember right he was charging somewhere in the range of $1k for what he did. I would hope to be able to offer these for $100 or less assuming you provide your own 90mm Hella units. That would just really cover materials and my time really/ I would most likely offer the parking lights as well(seeing how I'm going to have to make them) unless you want to try and build/buy your own.
However I don't want to even consider the sale of these or contemplate how much they are worth. This post was just started to see what people thought of my ideas and to provide feedback/opinions on the matter.
I will continue to post my progress with this and provide pictures as things move on. Thanks for the comments/opinions and motivation.
