Potential Future Aftermarket Products for Crossfires
its impossible to shape glass like that, not to mention a sunroof with a big *** hump in the middle wouldnt be retractable.
I have to disagree with you on all of the above. If I weren't so darn lazy, I might take that as a challenge and actually do it(or should I say have the right people do it). If I find a way to do it, will you change your tag line? LOL Just messin' with ya.

Someone with the talent and production capabilities might look into the variety of parts available for the early Mustangs restoration pieces, i.e.; Fender panels, rear quarters, hoods, trunks, and interior stuff.
I’ve watched the production of the carbon fiber hood, while interesting, it’s expensive and I just wonder about the use of sheet metal or fiberglass.
Looking at some of the pictures of wrecks shown at various times in here, which many seem to be dedicated to the front end of the car, I would think someone would consider that area of the car with reproduction pieces.
From what I’m reading the future availability of factory body panels isn’t that bright. I see the same story time and again in here, the insurance totaled the car and I see the picture and scratch my head thinking they’ve got to be kidding. But I suppose the real issue is the limited production of these cars and the lack of mass consumption of reproduction parts.

I agree on the front splitter!!!
I think its an "easy" part to start out with.
You can start with porducing one in any garage and then put it into "mass production". I like that idea, since I like the SRT bumper^^

Well if you want to let me use your car to build off of then maybe I could help you out with the front lip and rear diffuser. you of course would get them for free.
With probably no more than a dozen orders, we could probably get a quality built fiberglass reproduction of a "stock" Crossfire hood, from a well know Fiberglass hood manufacture.
There's going to come a time in the very near future, "NOS" hoods won't be available.
I'm just sayin.

OffshoreMM,
H82BL8 has a detailed thread where he has used a Seat Cupra R front splitter, it looks really good, I may well go down a similar route.

Exactly 2 piece molds aren't exactly cutting edge science, don't you watch how it's made? lol
