Ah yes, there's a fair call.
I got the quote back today.. might be easier to either:

A) go with the 'Ralliart' look (no caps)



or

B) buy new wheels.. but that also comes with it's own dramas.. wheel hub rings, wheel balance issues etc...

He tells me that he's happy to print one for free to see if I like the quality, and if I am, then I can pay to have 3 more done. So I have agreed to having a sample done. will be cool to see how it turns out.



Cheers,

One Mad Man

Chairman's Award: Chairman's Award - Issue reason: Your outstanding contributions to this community have not gone unnoticed. IN my view you are a worthy recipient of the (rarely used) Chairman's Award.

If they are accurately made, durable (don’t warp over time) and accept the correct finish without excessive prep the proposed fee is pretty reasonable IMO.

$170 an hour, do they think they're a doctor or a plumber?

I think that's quite reasonable, especially considering they are rare/obsolete parts.
