6 tubes? :?: shouldn't take that much unless it's a tiny ass tube like a superglue bottle & then I'd be damned if I'd personally pay $55 for it :squint:. If you don't mind try it out & send me the bumper cover with the molded bumperettes & some extra tubes :lol:. Seriously though let me know something if you get a tube & info about it after testing.

Re: Molding Cladding Together

wait are we talking about molding the cladding to the body... or seamless cladding? I think there was another maroon/burgundy colored "spaceship" looking s-series or sy/ty that had the cladding molded together (seamless) and the cladding looks nice that way, however the rest of the truck was ruined with wings and things, anyone know what truck im talking about?

I don't know about the truck you mentioned but yeah I was talking about seamless cladding (bumperettes seamless to the bumper & rear bedsides seamless to the roll pan maybe). I thought about doing my side skirts molded to the body but I'm still debating on adding SyTy door claddings & wheel arches.

Re: Molding Cladding Together

yea idk what bumprettes are either but then again i have a ty.. maybe hes talking about the little pieces on the sogt that connect to the front bumper... bc they dont have wheel arches right?

Re: Molding Cladding Together

Yes. Just past the bumper on the side, no arch.

WTF that listing says to use two sided tape? ...how much does a real piece go for if a fiberglass repro is almost 300?

Re: Molding Cladding Together

ebay user "washere" sells alot of syty stuff. Shirts, keychains, all kinds of stuff. I believe his name is Scott Husner. Do a search on the board for either name and you'll see what I mean.

edit: He also appears to have a website www.syclone-typhoon.com His ad pops up every now and then in the top corner.

http://www.syclone-typhoon.com/sonomagt.html he even sells SoGT t-shirts.

Re: Molding Cladding Together

how hard would it be to make fake cladding from original part of a Sy/Ty? id like to Clone a Syclone and since i have a Syclone id like to use it for its body parts. id like to make it from fiberglass.

Re: Molding Cladding Together

To do it correctly would cost a ton of money. You'd be better off buying fiberglass cladding from Paul's Select, if he still makes it. People sell OEM cladding on here all of the time. Keep your eyes open, pick up another pice whenever possible, and you'll have an entire set in no time.
