This is only a GI thread to begin with to see if there are enough interested people to make this go forward. If not, then i will forget it.
I contacted Jim Pierce (JPmotorsports) about getting the grills done in carbon fiber thru the guy that made the carbon hoods and hatches for the Escorts. This is a rough estimate based on only seeing detailed pictures that I sent him.
The price would be approx $1000 for the mould to be made, and approx $300
for each grill. Thats with 3-5 people, but the price would drop if we could get 10-20 people. The guy could give a more exact estimate if he could physically see the grill, but I want to make sure there is interest before I send off the grill.
I am thinking this will be a stretch to get even 5 people, especially considering the cost.
I will not front all the money for the mould, so the people interested are going to have to all chip in money, including myself to pay for it.
One last thing, I am thinking the person buying the grill will have to find whatever kind of 4" foglights they want, to install in the grill.
Let me know what you guys want. Remember I have an original grill already so, its up to you guys if this lives or dies.
And for the people that dont know what the grill looks like, here you go:
