In the mean time i will get a price from my guy.

Cool deal, if they are reasonably priced i would buy a set. I would not mind the later style molding on my 90.. only thing i would have to figure out is the front bumper and how to do it keeping the early style bumper.

I think the later molding holds better to age

I'm going to make molds regardless if Pete makes them. No biggie. I just want to have molds for all of the pieces. If it helps someone down the road, all the better.

Another item of interest would be the ZR-1 filler plate for the front bumper.

Brett,

I have a full set of 92 moldings i can loan for a few months. Better to get them from one place rather than individual. think i have the dog filler moldings too.

But...... these have to be in the plastic as per OEM, is that how you intend to mold them, or was you going to make them in fibreglass?

Would someone please contact a 49th street rocker owner and inquire about sending them to Blue Flame?

Just a thought - would it be possible to acquire the original GM molds? Assuming they weren't destroyed or something equally errr... 'short-sighted'.
