FWIW, Fronts for a 1200 sedan will be same as a 1200 ute, so only need dimensions for the rears.

Here's a couple of ideas for you that I would be keen on:

1. A carbon fibre look bonnet. Fiberglass with
just a top layer of carbon fibre matting to give it the look. You'd be best to copy a GX bonnet as they are the most sought after style. Or possibly copy a standard bonnet but add in a subtle scoop or cooling vents for the turbo fans.

2. Some fiberglass door trims that include a nice speaker hump for say a six inch speaker so you don't need to chop into the door metal to mount the speaker.

3. A replacement for the dash instrument panel that is made to fit a Silvia instrument cluster (commonly used for CA18 and SR20 conversions).

4. Some sill panel covers to replace the little aluminium things that are always dinged up.
(not sure if fiberglass would handle being stepped on though).

5. There's always demand for flat tops for the utes as well if you could produce one at a reasonable price.

Wow you're going to be busy..good luck and keep us all posted with what you come up with.

Yes fibreglass GX bonnet THAT WOULD BE THE ####!!!

But we'll wait to see how many people are keen, and as a suggestion that if you do take expressions of interest on the bonnets take deposits before making a mould that way you'll know for sure who's gonna buy them and who won't straight up.

Cheers

Open in new window


I am sure if you made some of these coupe vent scoops you would sell a few.
And if you interested in making moulds, you might think about making various light lenses. God knows Wally probly still gets PM"s from people asking him to make them still.

I think I have a complete spare dash. I'm also in the market for a carbon/kevlar cluster surround to go over a s13 cluster
