Making whomever is doing the R&D, tooling and associated costs understand the payout is minimal for time & money. To do this smart....if you guys can come to a reasonable ACTUAL purchase price for such a part/parts.....then I could budget the outlay of materials and its final build quality. Bare in mind....those $2k full diffusers are often cored and full CF lay-ups, post cured with heat to fully align molecules for best rigidity and strength-(read no warp,sag or print-through). The further from those parameters we go due to loss of budget....the lower the quality. My methods can only go so low before I have to bow out. |

I will just say, this design has 3 parts so as to allow a buyer a full pan girth or just the center section- (which goes up to the rear-most OEM mesh/grille). The added two parts are the left & right muffler pans that will have fasteners to attach. This might curb the price points for some who might find the full unit out of range or outside their $ comfort zone for mods such as this. |

If I were you, I'd get into the mindset of creating cool parts for yourself and the top 10 guaranteed enthusiasts you will definitely find. It might not be rewarding financially, but it would be a great hobby. Talking about parts that you'd need to sell for over $500 to break even for this scenario.

Dark...Unless I'm misunderstanding you, not sure why you're multi-tasking on all these right now and not have a single thing done. If it was me, I would devote all my time to the favorite project first and start selling that. When demands for that falls off and you have extra time, then start phasing in on your 2nd project, etc...

In other words....I'd have a lot of stop-n-go time on my hands if I didn't stay on tasks. This is the Resin Infusion world I live in......the open-mold, wet-lay-up guys can do it much faster, but that also yields a inferior part by far too. "Single thing done" ?! Are you kidding me ? You have no idea what I accomplish in my 7 day work week. Your simply viewing this by 'Zpost only world'. And there is no "Favorite" project or part. No one on here loves the same things enough to call them Favorite. I don't have 30 employee's and multiple depts. covering my designs,purchasing,modeling,fabrication,etc. all with day laborer wages. I think I'll just log off for a few months , everyone seems to know how to do composites better than the ones financing and doing all the R&D on all of this.I don't need the aggravation. Gawd I need a break, getting touchy. |

IMO a good diffuser will probably sell 10:1 some of the other things. Can't wait to see what you come up with!!!!!!!!
