Thinking of a side business
#61
Conrad, I wish you were a little closer to DC...I'm going to be finished school by Thanksgiving and I'd really love to start some projects with people...we should chat sometime.
As a side note, I love a lot of the ideas listed above, even the things like the cup holder etc. The thing about parts like this is: If they are quality made out of quality materials, and their installation is entirely REVERSIBLE, then there's absolutely nothing wrong with these type of items...if the owner sells the car, they can sell it with the old parts if they had the garage space, reinstall the old stuff before selling, or the new owner can find replacement original parts if he's that butthurt about having old crap replaced with new high quality updated parts...just my 2 cents haha!

I really hope you end up making fg interior panels. If the price is right I'd be very interested in door cards/ rear quarter speaker cover panels

True that...Also I really like the idea of fiberglass reproduction interior panels such as door panels, rear speaker panels, rear roof/headliner cover panel, maybe even carbon fiber or fiberglass center console pieces, not just glue on covers....it'd be neat to design a glovebox made out of fiberglass or CF that had an actual hinge and not just a piece of plastic that bends...I have many ideas Conrad, let's get together around Thanksgiving?? and chat...
