    Devestatingly beautiful. I've never seen a better looking front fascia. Makes me wish there was something wrong with mine

    Any idea on price yet?
    Retail for the fascia is $995, plus shipping. It can go by Fedex Ground, too.

    Minimum of one week from time of order to shipment at present.

    I saw the prototype part at DMCMW today.

    Very good quality and very light weight when
    compared to a stock front fascia.

    I saw the part not installed, so I could not
    see the actual fit quality, but the finish of
    the part was very high quality. Having the
    upper mounting bracket integrated is slick.

    I really think the rear fascia should be done
    using the same technique "now" rather than
    waiting for stock parts supply to run lower.
    Having both new parts of the same type and
    quality will raise the bar on any restoration.

    I would recommend SS studs on the bottom
    mounting area of a new repro rear fascia.

    Later,
    Rich W.

    I think you just did
    eBay selling at it's best I can tell you stock Delorians and quite a bit of slugs so the Turbo is a super nice up-grade.

    I know, but it never seems to work for me. It's only when someone else asks the question is when it gets answered.

    Several photos were posted earlier in this thread of the unpainted piece installed. The painted one we have here in the shop has not yet been installed on a car.

    James, appologies.

    If you get time, would you please take some pictures of the painted bumper mounted on a car? Preferably some low straight on shots.

    Do you know what color gelcoat these will be shipped in?

    Do you have a ballpark price for shipping in the U.S?

    Will all the flash be trimmed from these before shipping along with all holes cut out?

    Thanks!

    When it gets installed on a car, I'll be happy to do that. Not sure when that will be, probably not until after the 1st.

    These will come in white, as shown in the earlier photos. Black ones may be available, but the supplier uses that color for the "flexible" fiberglass and we are cautioned against these for the reason of future repair-ability. In any case, the black should not be used in place of painting the black areas of the fascia.

    Flash trimmed,yes. Holes drilled/cut, no.

    James,

    Thanks for the quick response, sorry that mine has been delayed. Nice job on the fascia! Considering that the one currently on 20098 has an eyebrow and scuff, I may be in the market sooner rather than later.

    Now that I've moved to Arizona, full time, as of this week, I am sure that the sun will do wonders on my original part and those eyebrows will soon get worse. Though it will be stored indoors, I now have the ability to drive it year round rather than keeping it off the road for 6 or so months out of the year as I did in Connecticut.

    Looking forward to the rear fascia being reproduced as well. I agree that having the rear part done sooner rather than later would be a huge bonus...hopefully it comes to be.
    - Josh
