wow that is just sick as hell.
i've always wanted to do a targa conversion, and while this is for t-tops, you said you had targa conversions in the works? would it be possible to produce this is a flat hardtop version for z28 guys? if i did end up doing the targa top conversion, would this be fine as the roof at highway speeds do you think?
i read about 5 pages and didn't see anything in the way of my questions, so sorry if i'm repeating. mad props though dude, you're doing an awesome job.

although VFN is a reputable company on the boards. There production on new products is SLOWWWW because they have so much going on. IMO I wouldnt go with them on making this unless you want the first one done when you dont have sponsorship anymore.

That looks great on the WS6, I've been hoping you would get something going for the 'Birds
Since you seem to have the resources you might want to look at coming out with your own version of the Brian Green Ram Air funnel for WS6 hoods
I think you would recoup a lot of cash with that alone and it should be relatively cheap to create.

All I'm doing is quoting the sites:

and Stull here:

You made your point, you love your cheap Ebay grille. I've had bad experience with them and don't feel comfortable selling them to the public.
How the hell could I charge $130 for a grill that costs me $120 (if I order 10 or less, $110 if I order 11-20) and an emblem that is $60 + shipping???

are you going to have some sort of support structure built into the fiberglass? i worry about it bowing up at speed and catching air if its just fiberglass.

Flat hardtop won't happen. Making a piece, having a mold made, etc... Is expensive. Hence us choosing a middle of the road design. Only one design for everyone.
Besides, most people who really want a flat roof (especially starting with a hardtop) can take the hardtop and have it reproduced in something...

Sorry man, Im gonna be that guy and tell you Im not a huge fan. And one look at your car and it looks like the vette. Not that thats bad or anything but these cars aren't vettes and they shouldn't be made to look like vettes. On a side note, for the Trans Am's, you should make the targa top the same width of the hood where it dips down in the middle. Might look a little bit better. just my .02
