I forget who actually makes those - I had his email at one time. Hell, I'd send him the material if it would make it easier!

Also, I'd love the combo of carbon lights and your center piece in carbon. I'm thinking I'd get a sticker shop to make the porsche logo in reflective material with a naturally subtle color (instead of bright yellow).

Talk to Mike Zois about that - he has the h/w to do that.

Wow - quick work! You're good!

How about finish on these - What's your recommendation for...

Fiberglass:
Primer needed? Paint prep?

Carbon Fiber:
UV protection clear? Paint Prep if painting?

Thanks!

Ok, the page is up (finally)

http://rennlight.com/reflector

I'm looking for another nice original reflector from which to make a beefier (ie one that will last more than 20 copies) mold.

Thom

I have an original reflector... It popped out when I crashed the car. It seemed to me that the outside was in good condition. The piece is with the car at the workshop. I will try and get there today or tomorrow (it's 20miles from where I live).
If it is in good condition I'll send it to you.
