Yeah that makes total sense, well explained.

Sounds like you've been following this better than me (I was a lot more active back when he started this and am slowly catching up). Has he ever mentioned if he plans to continue with this or what the issues holding him up are? Seems like for his price there would be a lot of us willing to pay up front to help him get this going. But money is probably not the issue here.

A while back I had said something to him, he told me he was just too busy right now. Has alot on his plate and the side skirts aren't very important right now.

I know there were alot of people who even put in a deposit for them and he had to return them cuz he was so far behind!

Once they are finished, and I have some extra $$$ I am definately gonna buy a set.

I like the splitters for a few reasons..
they actually dont hang down as far as you may think
and less prone to getting damaged.
If they do, they are fiberglass and easy to fill and fix.
They dont act like snow plows in the snow season either
so they stay on better in bad weather.
If you dont like the seam they end up with, its easy to fill
the seam with a epoxy filler and give it a more molded look
if you desire. Not necessary but an simple solution for that.
Plus they really arent that $ compared to some of the other
options we all have out there.
Im getting more Cloud stuff in Jan 08, but actually making it
is far off due to cost of molds vs how many we would have
to sell and at what price.

Ive had splitters for 5 yrs on my own car

Yeah....I'm slow

Recently I did find someone to help me, so things may be changing/progressing soon if it all works out right.

Work @50 hrs/week + 2 kids + Working Mrs. Stevebsy =/= not much spare time I'm afraid... With my helper I hope to start pushing things along so there will be some progress at least.

hint hint Come on Steve!

I think Steve did his with 2 pieces per side, and they joined in the middle. I forget if this was to make shipping cheaper or had to do with the mounting or something else. Seems the Japanese ones are 1 piece. One piece would look cleaner, but I wonder if there was an issue that Steve was trying to avoid by making it 2 pieces (which the stock pieces in that area are I believe).

From the work Steve did on the Euro bumper and the side skirts, I have no doubt he could get the Cloud City front and rear done right as well. But obviously he lacks the time these days...

just a thought if people decide to get together and pool their money to buy one complete set and have them sent to either a fiberglass company for some kind of limited reproduction or even ABS plastic would maybe be better. Once that first cast or whatever they do is made the rest should be alot cheaper. Just a thought I found this place as an example: http://www.mcclarinplastics.com/services.html
