Usually, in the automotive manufacturing supplier pool, you can find a
vendor willing to produce your part in prototype quantity.  Tooling cost to
form and roll the sheet metal trim piece(s) needed is usually the expensive
part.
The first step would be to create a detailed drawing which is derived from
a 3D CAD model of the part.
Are there many Tiger owners with access to the software that will create
the model and drawing?
