So I need some real feedback. I have recently posted my son and my first product on the for sale section here. I own my 3rd 914 which I rescued from a lot in Georgia several years ago. I am in the process of restomodding it. Given it was a dead car it was perfect for me to modify. My first realization was it needed much better lighting. Which sent us down the road of 3 d printing parts. If I could get some feed back regarding our front turn signals i would appreciate it...I only got one response which I feel was more focused on professional pictures and presentation. Again I dont have the resources to make a big glossy website. This is an honest venture and we aim to make several parts for the 914 in the future. Check it out and please give me usable criticism.

I've already given feedback on the turn signals. As far as the side markers go,.....the phrase, "You can't polish a turd" applies here. The original side marker, IMHO, is a turd. That's why so many people delete them. The absence of the side marker makes the whole car look cleaner.
There are folks that like them....they probably aren't going to change. The people that like them, but would like a more integrated looking lens, are probably not going to dig yours because you really haven't reduced the "bulkiness"....just changed the shape. On top of that, because you've changed the shape, it appears that you now have to weld up part of the existing hole. Lots of folks don't want to do that. They are really just looking for more of a flush design that lies flat with the sheet metal...I think. For those that are going to have to weld anyway to use your design, I think most are just gonna go for the delete. Unlike the previous poster, I am just an idiot on the internet with no design background....so take it with a grain of salt. I still dig the turn signals, with some slight mods! |
