I did open mine, but its still new condition. Otherwise, I'll have to repaint mine (it's opened in this pic, but I did it carefully without ruining the packaging, I just slit the top part & sides with a razor):

Yeah, about 6 years ago when I contacted the folks that had them made and she had a few left, I wish I bought them all. I only bought two and they are on my hood so I guess I better enjoy them until they get stolen or deteriorated.

Well I wonder if it could be CnC'd out of aluminium. I have tried to mold parts in the past and they are hard to get the look right.

Let me talk to a friend that owns a machine shop, if it could be done, I would need very specific measurements to get it right without have it in our possession..

I will get with him this weekend and see what he says about the possibilities.

These could be re popped pretty easy and I dont see what G.M. would make a fuse about somebody making a few of these.Urethane could be used to make the part.I bet Brett could make these,all he needs is one.Would somebody loan one out providing they got it back in the shape it was received?Ive molded parts in the past and could make these but dont have enough experience with this using somebodys part that couldnt be replaced.I can see these showing up down the road.I made my own molds for redesigned mirror fairings and made my own part.Just need the weather to warm up so I can finish these.[IMG]http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a1...M/DSC00640.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a1...M/DSC00645.jpg[/IMG]

If the repop includes the Chevy bowtie then GM will have a huge problem with them. They are very protective of their trademark emblems.

Could probably also do it with a water jet or laser cut. It would be done in 5 sections. Base, bowtie, L, T, 5. then epoxied together.
