Mad Med has the shop in StL that is doing the CF hood, he said they could easily do the SRT wing as well, but have nothing to work from
If the wing would come back to you in 100% the same shape as when it went out, would you be even willing to entertain the idea?? (I have no idea if they destroy the part in making the mold or what the deal actually is)
Thanks for your time
If you had caught me a week ago (before I painted it), perhaps... But after the "take two" I just made the paint guy do (due to a light "fish eye" effect on the clearcoat), I think it would be a bit hypocritical to then send it off to have a mold formed around the part, risking losing part altogether. In fact, it's my nit-picky nature that has resulted in me not installing the part tonight. But, the clearcoat on the base plate was very slightly dimpled... like the skin of an orange. About every 5mm or so, there was a tiny "fish eye" where the clearcoat didn't stick very well. They either rushed the clear, or sprayed it when there was too much humidity. The wing, however, was perfect. And it looks GAWJUS.
Also, I've already discarded the massive box that was required to ship both parts... the box was almost as big as my futon. I'd have to spend another ~$100 just to ship it one way...
So, it's a no go.... sorry bud.
