Default Any interest in plastic parts?

Over the winter I'm considering making some new plastic parts for my GPz750.

I plan clear turn signal lenses. These I'd cast from clear acrylic, they'd be exact copies of the originals down to the lettering on the front. These no doubt will fit other models. They're about 3 1/4" by 2 1/2" I've run these on a BMW with blue bulbs in the front. They're great, drivers you're following think you're a cop and pull over!

I'm also thinking of a "hugger" and "under tail" These I'd make from fiber glass, gel coated black. The under tail would fit with the sock tail and seat. I'd leave the plate, stock light and turn signals "out back" rather than tucked inside the fender.

Is there any one out there who'd be interested in these? The more I make the cheaper they'd cost. It may also give me incentive to finish these projects!

If someone has already made any of these parts let me know.

Let me know ....

well you and buy the clear lenses, they are made by K&L and cost a couple bucks. I just installed a set on my GPz1100.

I would be careful with the impersonating cop thing, it's a huge fine if you get popped.
