If there was ONE item you'd like to buy in injection plastic, what would it be?

I mean injection plastic part for the S2000.

As some of you know I work for a mfg. company now, and I've gained a lot of experience in developing projects that requires molds. Electronics molds are usually very expensive (very high precision), but I remember a while back a few hundred people were willing to pitch in to build a mold for an intake or something. Instead of paying a few hundred and change for a CF one, you can pay as little as $10 for the intake (depending on volume of course) that'll be the same every time - and smooth too.

Just curious to know if there was ONE item you'll want made out of injection plastic, what would it be?

Hardtops are NOT a very feasible plan, I've checked.

hmm... injection molded plastic...

how about some new radio doors...
or vafc mount,
some decent looking pillar gauge mount,
v1 mount, new "secret compartment" top,
... or perhaps, center console cover in some new arragement.

an air duct that fits the cut-outs of the faux ducts perfectly. I'd be all over that, esp if it tapered to a nice circle and some tubing could be attached to direct the air to wherever

I would LOVE a thin non-permanent cover for the secret compartment and glove box. It could be painted by the owner to create a colored "water fall" in between the seats. I've yet to figure a good solution for this.

However, I don't see how you could go wrong with a Spoon style CAI for $10. (wow!)
