lip
I've been scouring the Internet for a SLEK replica lip.
Can anyone point me where I can find it? Or any other search terms?! Thanks! |

No idea what's involved, but if it looks good and has good fitment, yeah. I'm sure you could make some money.

Interesting. Please also look into an abs mold as well while you're at it.

If I made it out of PU (polyurethane), the cost will dramatically go up due to it probably needing to be an injection mold. If I get a group buy going on for PU, then I can definitely see on doing this. However, the FRP I have on the car feels durable enough (unless you ram-rod it into a curb), and I will be making each order. Possibly can do a CF overlay as well. Unsure about full CF.. I plan to price them cheap enough to replace, if need be. |

Thanks for the details. Interesting that it sounds like a mold already exists.

Just need to gel coat it, then add fiber reinforcement for rigidity. |

funny how publicly illegal actions can be discussed on here. a replica lip is technically illegal, and then further pirating and producing that product is again illegal. Slek can sue you.
