Thanks for the comments so far.
Providing there is enough margin at your retail price point (which is more than fair), this is a no brainer.
Build it!

very cool that you are reproducing nla parts, but I hate branded components.

If it were my project I'd pull the company name off of it, its not like its an upgrade or unique item.

Good luck either way

I think it's an upgrade and a unique item. It shouldn't fail like the factory part and nobody else on the market makes an upgrade.

Seems to me like there's a ton of support for the part, Abran! Good luck!

Thank you for all of the support.

it will only have one logo and will be very subtle.

Got the prototype for the part. Apparently based on the hardness of material we are requesting we will need to make the angles on our accordion waves less acute/drastic to release from the mold.
