I'd pay $150-$200 for a repro front spoiler.

Id buy one... The one on my black amx has seen way better days. I was going to take the spoiler off my red amx and try to make a mold at some point but just haven't gotten to it. To many other projects going on at the moment

Why don't we get together and have someone reproduce them already?

I heard these guys were thinking of reproducing them and then changed their minds.

http://www.frankscustomfiberglass.com

I just emailed them. Maybe we all should.

I think before one gets all their hopes up,  a price needs to be found out about.  It might pay just to go check on what they already make by looking at their products before some one gets too excited about queuing up with earnest money
if you notice, nothing in their product line is for reproduction parts for American Muscle which leads one to believe the market is a little thin.

If any one might make this part based possibly on need it would possibly be some one who already is making AMC fiberglass replacement pieces.
Some one such as:

One of a number of vendors found using a Google search of:

Fiberglass Reproduction  AMC

My Reproduction 79/80 AMX Graphics package came today from Phoenix Graphics.  Now I have something that if the car gets damaged, I can put it back together again.  Yes it is going to get stashed.
And if the front air dam is some how reproduced and it is affordable, I'll order one too.
If I could find one for my 77Hornet AMX fender flares, I would have enough parts to Clone an AMX with. That was a good looking package and probably should have been brought out as part of the Hornet package pretty much from the get go.

Okay, there are 14 of us, right here, in this small corner of the internet.  Isn't that enough to at least get someone to do a small initial run of them?

That depends strictly on the cost of the end product and probably in part a certain amount of front money to insure that tooling costs are covered.
And last but not least who is doing the tooling.
