we were planning to do a special run on all these fiberglass parts with MB. Unforunately, the price of doing the parts and the return on investment isnt that much. We're looking at having to do $10K worth of fiberglass parts with only minimal return.

My question is. would you be willing to pay:

1. Fiberglass front end $750.00
2. Fiberglass doors $600
3. Fiberglass hood skins $250
4. Fiberglass hatches $450.00

If you can make them bulletproof too, at the same cost, I will most definitely pay that for fiberglass.

If you're charging me labor, I might just have to say know and see if bondo works on sheet metal

I know where MB is and they can still be done. but to do 1 hood skin. its not worth it for them. They would need to do a large batch and for us to front the money and stock these parts. and for anyone to make these things, and sell them, of course they want to make money. why would you do it, spend alot on money to stock them and make nothing. you gotta pay to play.
I'm glad I stocked up on my CRX and Civic hood skins. I dont think i'll ever sell them now. hehe.

I'd like to get some fiberglass parts down the road as well.
I'm guessing that Franks Cusom Fiberglass still makes parts.

looks about like the prices exospeed is talking about charging too.
