[s-cars] S-CAR-List Digest, Vol 37, Issue 43

[Mario Tremblay]

i definitely would be interested in anything lighter that doesn't rust 
to put on the car... ;)

i also know there's a "hood"  people wanted produced on s-cars.org ... 
but my guess is they still didt go forward by lack of molds ...  because 
there's already a list of at least 10 people for urs4 hoods "prepaid" 
part of the amount .. and also 9 people for urs6 hood..

if you prove your stuff to be top notch quality.. i don't know why i 
would bother with shipping :D

for the price.. i suggest you calculate your cost price, then your time 
.... and make a price outta that... then for shipping will depends on 
the living places of people ordering ?
