    I used to reproduce alot of ferrari parts a few years back. I got started with it because distributor caps were 450$ each so I started reproducing a low volume parts, Anyhow to make a long story short, now that Im into comets and mavericks I was thinking about reproducing the boomerangs in plastic and then having them chromed. They wont be metal and the chrome will not be as strong but they will be perfect reproduction parts and flawless in apperance. Is this something you guys would be interested in, and what would be a fair price. I want to see if its something worth reproducing time/cost effective.

    Here's the response from RPS:
    Hi Ray. These are not available yet. I need to take them off my website until they are someday ready. Thanks Tony

    Ben, I think they would go over quite well if you can make it happen if they look and fit like the originals for around $100 or so. :Handshake
