I'd also take a pair...

 

Derek, I’m not sure if you know, but reproduction Daytona speaker grilles are already available in your area and while not 100% accurate, they are quite well done, so you might ask yourself if creating competitive items for quite limited market is really beneficial or worth a while.

As someone who’s been reproducing variety of parts for numerous makes/models of vintage cars, including Daytonas, over 25 years, I’m convinced that it may not be enough to offer competitive pricing, the quality has to clearly surpass that of others and yet there’s no guarantee you’ll sell them, especially if your competitors are able to lower their prices below or close to yours.
In the end, such competition may not benefit either of you.

For example, I’ve been reproducing some (non-Ferrari) items which are quite costly to produce and are considered on known to be better(?) quality than equivalent OEM items, but in past 5-10 years there’s been an influx of “cheaper” alternatives coming to market at a retail price of about half what my production cost are.
While the market for them is much bigger than any Daytona related items and I still have relatively good, long term clientele who recognize the obvious difference and are willing to pay for it, my annual sales of them have dwindled to 10-20% of what they used to be 10+ years ago.

P.S. I couldn’t tell you how many of these types of ventures I’ve seen come and go bust in my 4+ decades in this hobby and business.

 

OTOH, should you decide to produce Daytona grilles and they exceed the accuracy, fit & quality of existing reproductions at indicated price range, I’ll probably buy a set or two.

I have no skin in this game.

 

Derek I can get you photos and accurate dimensions as my car is being painted right now.
give me a day or so.
Thanks howard

 

Sounds like Howard can get to his car faster than I can get to mine (also in the shop).

If Howard has trouble, I can see if I can get the dimensions.

 

I’m in for a pair for 308. Thank you.

 

Forgot to suggest that should you decide to go ahead producing these for Daytona, further due diligence might be in order to prevent unexpected surprises.
I've observed at least 2 different OEM(?) versions of them, but like with so many other ancillary components on these, who's to say there isn't more.
After all, the model was in production for nearly 4 and 1/2 years.

 

Alex, computer problems and I'm stuck till my tech can fix it. Sorry

 

Alex, PM me your email address and I'll get the photos to you

 

Got it. will send in an hour or so
