I'm going to say nearer £700 maybe more.

The amount of work required to get a basic mould sorted and polished as a one off takes hours in itself.

 

If you consider a carbon Fmic cover costs around £150 odd and that's for a real basic flat shape, when you start adding major 3d shapes to carbon and getting it to look good multiple moulds are needed.

I'd agree, between £700 - 1,000 is my guess. I remember seeing Carbon airboxes on the Honda S2000 & they were £1200!!!
