Made a little progress this weekend. The back side is cut. Next is cutting the script and figuring out the spring loaded hinge. Any ideas for the electric latch? I planned on using one from a grand am because they are plentiful at the Pick N Pull

Some should be available in time. There's a lot more work involved than it may seem. They will be molded from cf or fiberglass and the handles will always be aluminum.
I am making the bucket as well

I would also love to know a price.

I hate to be that guy that asks for more, but any chance someone will be making the bucket the handle fits in?

Sweet!

Let me know how much you need for one once you get one freed up for sale.  Glad to see someone taking this project on.   ::thumbup

I started on the handle. The top side is done besides engraving Lamborghini text. I'll do that last after I block sand out any remaining tooling marks.

43k, pffff no prob. I'll just sell my project and drive around a fuel door all day.

"Is that a lambo fuel door?"

"Why yes it is. Sexy isn't it?"

"Oh my. Can you let me take it for a ride?"

"I would, but it's a single seater. Couldn't afford the other seat, sorry."

CF rocks it would be morally wrong to cover it with paint but I guess Lamborghini does it everyday.

I have the drawings. Just wanna verify it's scaled correct. A good friend of mine is printing them up as well as the ones I'm making from CF. aluminum will be nice tho.

I have no idea what number would do justice a piece that awesome!. An all aluminum milled Gas section would be a sweet addition that would add to the perfection of a build.

I have a dream, that one day we will not be judged by the supplier of our kits but by the content of the build!

The same machinist that is making the aluminum head light rings has the drawings for a Reventon gas cap and has talked about making it. 

As with anything else.. money talks and buys time on the mill.   ::toothy

How much would something like this be worth to you guys if it was done in aluminum?
