Re: New and complete set of green stripes and mouldings
There's a chap in the uk "sierra'r'us" who has so many brand new mouldings of the green and blew ones and second hand ones that he is selling around £15 a strip, so at that price you will very unlikely get a sale, but good luck anyways.

Re: New and complete set of green stripes and mouldings
I wait until someone pays me the price i'm asking for. I think they are extremly rare and i doubt, that there's someone, who's able to offer a whole new set of wrapped strips and mouldings. I bet one of the concous guys would be happy to get hold of these. But maybe i'm wrong. We'll see.

Re: New and complete set of green stripes and mouldings
If the fella from sierrasrus is selling brand new ones and good second hand ones for £15 a strip then ill buy them all.
Seriously....The price mate is huge, not knocking you in any way as if you feel that they are worth that then fine. Theres a fine line here though between pricing yourself out of the market totally, and getting a good top price. ive got a full brand new spare set aswell, but i wouldnt sell as if anything happened to them when fitted then id be in the same boat as people are now, and have to pay good money to get a straight set. I managed to source three or four sets of very straight second hand ones years ago which i might sell in a few years, but not for massive money.
as you know, my car is a concours show queen....Would i personally pay huge amounts for green strips??....No way, not for something that is at the end of the day, a piece of green plastic.
You will have to be very careful in my opinion, as with 3D printing becoming more "in house", this type of item will soon become mass produced and identical to the real thing once fitted (maybe even less likely to be bent up), so the price for these types of items will drop significantly.
Just bear this in mind....Its like what i mentioned a long time ago....Pirelli P600s are big money nowadays, but what happens to the tyres that are stored because the owners think they will be worth even more in years to come, then realise that the only car owners who require them are the concourse boys....who've already got theirs!!...No one else will want to buy 25-30yr old tyres for their road cars....which immediately makes the "stored" p600s worthless.
Anyway, i hope you make the sale of the century because if they sell for that price then ill be most pleased as my set will will be become available soon after!!

Re: New and complete set of green stripes and mouldings
Iv'e only recently came into the fiesta scene as iv'e always owned capri's and still do, so part wise i know wgats worth what with capri's but when i purchased a joblot from sierra'r'us i asked about the strips without an idea of how much there worth, he told me there's a big box above hes garage which he pointed out and told me, ge does have new sets and for just one wing mould it would be £15 so thats where my price came from thats why i laughed when the chap who made the thread placed a price like that, atleast i know there sought after.
