What are we talking about cost wise for the actual boot lid? The Tiger type spoilers are available here but I prefer the moulded type, as I think they break the lines of the car up less.

From memory, I thought they did a black rubberised version in the same style as yours (like the Escort and Capris) but I could be wrong?

Thanks.

only 11 years later Yeah the "Black rubber" was an addon available back in the 80's & 90's though I have not seen alternative recently (might be time for a deep dive into Google hah

2025 Update : mine is fine : putting it in the car when the paint was still wet probably is why it's flaked off the fan shroud..

I hear its around $600 these days the re-core according to new member Simon

Materials & Labour costs have risen etc

FYI I've also Commissioned these :

"Aunger Style" Screw on Caps for my Hotwire's



Gunna adjust to put the Avenger Logo on top (or Datsun / Toyota / Mazda)

yeah could 'just do a sticker'

will evaluate / test them a bit more before "releasing"

asking $15 each printed = $60 a set of 4x (Thinking 'free' reprints if they fail within 5x years etc)

or putting the STL online for a couple bucks

will also explore the Press in style for Cheviot / ROH's and Wards

utilising / "re-modeling" existing models like https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:703553

What do we reckon team?

Gonna be looking at about 100 bucks each to make those z pipes
Does that seem a bit steep to you? Would you still be keen on one or two?

I reckon might be worth trying to buy existing at that cost aye

and the quote has come from a Kiwi-Maker so I completely understand the "setup & effort" charges
