How much for the templates?
Also, maybe since you said you don't know if you have the time to actually post what the dimensions are. That would help a great deal. I actually live pretty close to you and maybe sometime might see you out at Norwalk.

I think $40+supplies+S&H is somewhat reasonable. I think that would be around a total of $70-80ish for most people. RKSport fuel rail covers are about double that. I think since your not a copy, not overcharing us 40% markup, etc, that is a pretty decent price.

not to be to picky, but, eh, your fuel line
is tied to your air pump thing-a-ma-bob.
there was a recall on this. fuel lines and hot metal dont mix.
oh, by the way. i think you need more practice on them, why not make another set and ship them to me so i can get a closer look? . (translation-- they look great and i want some too)

They are made out of 1/16" aluminum that I cut on my bandsaw and formed with a 2x4 and a rubber mallet to give them some shape. A coat of gloss black ceramic engine paint and a pair of camaro stickers, courtesy of ZGRAPHICS (Toledo)....I think they turned out pretty good.
Also, any suggestions on more engine bay improvements?...I am thinking about doing a similiar thing to the radiator shroud, also in gloss black with a large red Z28 on it.
These are exceptional. I have a 94Z28 and a 92 Corvette and I have been wanting to modify a set of Corvette covers but these are great. Clean and mean looking and the radiator shroud sounds like it would match well. Good looking engine compartment.

Hey everyone...
Since there is some pretty serious intrest in these fuel rail covers, I am looking into having the blanks laser cut and then I will form them and ship them out unpainted. When I get a quote back from the company I am looking at having do them. I will propose a cost to you and see if there is still interest.
Thanks

I'd be up for buying them but I'd like them black with Trans Am in chrome and I'd be up for a radiator shroud too (black with a chrome Firebird logo). Get ahold of me if you would like some cash.
Thanks

i would also be interested in them. if you do not sell them, i would be interested in the templates to make a set for myself, since i do have access to a metal shop. i am just too lazy to go outside and see what i would have to do.
