I've been pushing james to make these for some time, as you all know. He's finally hirred some help to get these done.
If I can get 25 sets we can drop that down to $290. So for less than you can buy one bumper top for, you can get a set. They will come in a black gel coat, but can be sanded and painted to the color of your car. So who's interested? |

can the fiberglass be made to look original, or just painted to match the car?

Do they not look original in the black gel coat? If not, are they close? I was kinda looking for plug and play, not something I had to paint.

If someone local gets a set of these I would be willing to do a how to thread, to make them look as close as possible to original (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) My response was to a question about making them look as authentic as possible Original tops were not slick as the gel coat will be. They had a light texture and were more of a semi black then the glossier black that the gel coat will be I would guess that if your not interested in going through painting them, then you probably aren't too concerned about perfecting the original look, so you could bolt them right on as is.
