Fellow floridians, lend me your strakes.

Your fender strakes. I want to borrow them for an hour or so, so that I can make some molds off them. Pretty please. I'll do the removal/install work, and buy ya some beers. I'm just tired of waiting to see if someone does a replica and can make my own over the weekend sometime.

If someone helps out. Thanks. Also, if things work like I think they will, I'll be able to offer copies that will need minor finishing for about 50 bucks a pop. Maybe less.

Genom- if you can get them cloned- why not just buy a pair for about $185 mail order, cast them then sell at $150 right here- or on ebay. I'm sure brand new strakes will sell immedately at $150- and your profit on the ones you sell will more than make up for a lost $35

But what do you mean by clean up?- just buffing them out and some rough edges would be okay- but if we have to have them professioanlly sprayed - the savings go out the window.
