I didn't know Israel was making 914 parts. I didn't even know they had any 914's there. Looks like cool stuff! wonder what the shipping cost is?

There has been at least one member from israel on world. Israel would be a great place to own a 914. The cars don't rust. I saw a ton of old vw buses when I was there being used as delivery vehicles. |

interesting, their main business is drone and airplane parts , wonder what lead them down the 914 path, maybe a company owner isa 914 guy? parts look well done -
they do commision work. so maybe a group buy of 914 parts would be considered (im sure expensive and probably cost prohibitive ie. like a CF targa!! top!!) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

Is the stock center console that heavy?
For racing, how much lighter is a carbon fiber center console over chucking your stock console out of the the car entirely? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) |

Thanks David |

I would love carbon front and rear hoods, door skins would also be on my list. Carbon top, most likely not unless I could epoxy it to the A-pilar, and roof. The epoxy joint would be the week spot on that one.
What are we talking $$$$ wise, need to save some coin for a GB |

Sell it cheap, charge an arm and leg for shipping and handling....
Anyone remember the RONCO Pocket Fisherman? International shipping has become ridicoulus. Buyer paid $77+ to ship green dot jack to England. Had conversation with left coaster that paid around $700 for shipping a set of minilites across the ocean.... Me personally, I would like to see in carbon fibre: 1) a-pillars. Both with and without guage pods 2) Trim peice between A-pillars that sun visors mount thru 3) B-pillar cover for coat hook cover 4) front roll bar pad - good ones hard to find, make .050 undersized. Cover ot au-natural... Cool/possibly un-necessary.... 1) headlight motor mechanism guard/cover, left and right 2) group 42 battery cover as stock 3) relay box cover Under the always wondered category.... Battery tray. Riv-nut in place, built in port for drain. Stong enough for real world application? Rocker Panels - as strong as stock steal ones. Hard part is, is semi-brake even cost wise? Knew someone in the Leary 90s that had a company make "protectors " for the front part of chrome sidepipes for early corvettes out of acrylic.. Sold the for $200 a pair. Back then, setup cost to install in thermoformers ran $250, machine/labor time ran $120 an hour and material was about $6 a part. 5 hour minimum run time.... Kind of sounds like one of Mikeys group buys. Spend $5-6K on tooling and production and with any luck, make a grand or two in the process. |
