Repairing pitting in cuda hood inserts

IMHO, that is sort of cr@ppy deal when you don't get your original back and all you get in return is ONE new repop version.

To me that just sets them up to use cruddy quality originals to make repro parts from instead of good parts.

Why would you give them a nice original and all you get in return is ONE new repop. And what happens if PG Classic's aborts the project midway? Can you get your original back. What if it's already be destroyed to start making the molds, there's nothing to send back.

PG should suck it up and buy the part they want to reproduce and avoid the drama, red tape, and hassles.

I had some of the same thoughts, wondering how he acquired originals for all their other product line. I am not sure of their process - do they use some of the new 3D printer technology where they scan it and make a computer based mold where minor imperfections can be removed with software?

Seems like the profit in these could be questionable when you think about the limited market.
