As title says. Not the AA ones which don't look good.
This is different to a 911 type
Thanks

I think we should petition Mark at 914 rubber
to make some, they would fit, def better than the AA ones and more than likely sell like hot cakes

No offense but I would use real ones.

I would like a set and know others that need them too. I have one factory set that could be used to mold from if Mark wants to do it. Sorry Biggles, not for sale:)
cheers,

Cheers guys for keeping this thread going. I'm sure there would be demand for this.
They appear similar to early 911 but doesn't have the cut outs at the back. I had the 911 ones on my car and although it fitted, it wasn't right.
The other thing I can think of doing is getting someone to have a set 3D printed - but not the cheap kind you see in the high street/in the home. No idea how much it would be but it's possible.

I think Mark / 914rubber can get this done one he sees a valid demand. It might not be a high volume item right off the bat but I think the guys who want it will pay to get a quality item produced. I'm told AA's version is not comparable to the origional.

For that size part, a proper injection mold will cost around $15-20K; so the issue becomes recovering the tooling costs vs such a small demand item.

Well, I can make these, there are 2 methods. On that is $10k+, the other about $800+ a bunch of my time. Yes I'm willing to make these, but do not want to make a copy of a copy, so If I can borrow a set of originals for 8-10 weeks, yes I would make these. Cost will be dependent on the number of units I can sell, so GB would make these affordable.
PM me for the address to ship to and I will do these.

So picking up on Mike's comment, if someone was able to temporarily donate their covers, he would be able to do the tooling. As ever, only as good as the master so any NOS 914/6 clam shell covers out there or excellent originals?
