Just installed GT flares. Looking for options for the front and rear valences, and rocker covers. Thanks,

Not a GT replica valence but designed for flared cars. I personally think this is a very nice valence integration, although never seen on a factory car. The devil is in the detail. The lack of gap between the bottom of the bumper and the valence adds to the clean finish.

I do like that as well.

Ps rather than fielding a bunch of PMs could you give us a price range on the parts you can provide? I might be interested but not sure how interested

Good Idea - I've messaged several members, but let's jump in. I previously used to manage a similar kit for Ferrari-parts and this is a similar venture, easier in some ways.

- - -

For anyone interested in this - extending to the whole community...

I have experience on a similar-note with Ferrari parts, however this is a newer venture for me so for anyone up for it and flexible I'm happy to work out the initial-set. Currently I have the front valence (GT), Rocker-panels (GT), and rear-valence (GT) with dual-exhaust, single exhaust or no-cutout.

I'de like to prove how this is a better method of production (hand-laying) and a superior product. Looking at prices, I'de like to be competitive, and would offer the set as an initial-run of $800 + shipping. I don't have my online-store setup, so this would be similar to the run of oil-coolers I did a few years ago.

I'll give it just over 1-month to set this up and take a list of anyone interested, let's call it June 1. I think Ben Martin took photos of when we were putting these on my car - Traveling today for my day-job, posting the 'mold' photos I have on hand and will add the latest late (trying not to saturate a thread that isn't mine).

If I'm slow to respond here, shoot me an email - eallenmar@eamandco.com though we are a ways out from those details I think.

Thanks all,
Enrique
