I am not seeing any one as gullable here. DAM impatient and jumping to conclusions ~ YEP !!!
The fella said in post it would be 1/2 months before he has any thing to report back with.
It has been 2 weeks and 3 days and you are trying to call this guy out,,,, WOW, that is simply amazing ,,, wow.
I do not know this fella but personally know how long this type of work takes wether he is using a style simalr to what I use or has some bazillion dollar machine to crank stuff out.
If he comes back with something, great. If he don't come back on here, it might VERY well be he read the posting and said the hell with us.
So set your June 24 (pm- evening-night) notifications so you can be sure to start bitching if you really have NOTHING better to do.

Injection molding is just what we need for headlight bezels etc. Hope this works out! I am itching to see someone pump out high quality replicas!
UPDATE!! I got a email from Colt last Wed ,I haven't checked my email till now.

You have great timing I am doing my first run this weekend they will be vacuum formed the front fender and side scoops will be and the headlight will be injected but I am having problems with consistent color and I'm not going to sell crap sorry for the slow update this is a second job if you know what I mean, if you can spread the word that would be great and will post pics of products ASAP

I totally forgot about this thread, I emailed Colt tonight so I should hear from Him soon and let you guys know if he has made any progress on this.
I would be very suprised to see any injection molded parts from this. Anyone who claims they can build an injection mold the size of the rear fenders for 5 grand is full of crap. A mold that size -even made in China would be at least $50,000 and thats a stretch. If it were built in the U.S- at the chepest low budget shop it would be close to $100,000. At our shop we would not touch it for under a quarter million. That thing would weigh at least 6,000 pounds and the size of the molding machine would be massive. Injection molds are very expensive to build, but give a top grade product. All the after market plastics are vaccuum molded, it is very cheap. You could probrably get one of those built for about $10,000.

Bob, You could very well be right. I only know what the guy told me. I do know he made a few molds for the place I work at. I have no clue as to what they cost the company though.
