BRZ Fender Inserts, Seat Covers and Hood
I'm working on mocking up some products that I may have a local shop produce.
I need 1 set of BRZ OEM fender inserts. 1 set of BRZ/FR-S OEM seat covers (can be damaged) 1 BRZ/FR-S OEM hood I'm not looking to spend a bunch of money on these as I'm going to be tearing them apart and doing a lot of mock-up work. If you donate me a part I'd be glad to send you a final product if you want it. The condition of the parts isn't super important as long as they have their structural shape still intact. Chipped/scratched/slightly rusted/torn parts are acceptable and honestly preferred as I will be doing a lot of cutting and hot work.

The seats are so I can tear them apart and create patterns for each of the parts. Then I can work on sewing them out of new materials and colors.
As for the hood and vents, I'm working on creating a venting system that will be aimed directly at the most effective way to reduce engine bay temperature and pressure so as to reduce hood lift and engine bay heat. The options currently available are either too expensive for what they do, or are aimed more at form as opposed to function. Some people also have concerns with water getting into the engine, so I'm fabricating a diversion system that will allow water to drain without touching anything and still allow tons of heat and pressure to escape the engine bay. Ideally I'd like to cut into the hood and test the design, and if it's a good design I'm considering creating a plastic insert for the hood. This would be a product that would be far cheaper than vented hoods themselves. Basically you'd be able to cut a hole in your current hood and then glue in or otherwise attach these inserts and have a very effective venting system.

No one has any of this stuff?
Even wrecked cars are perfect!
