Ok, have asked the question of them, here's response:

Quote:
To make the moulds we would need a set of wings to get a perfect reproduction.... The pair of wing moulds would cost around £1,400.00
To produce a wing........ the cost would be around £135.00

Yes we could colour match a gel-coat to a paint code........ but this would be an expensive route as to colour matching cost around £70............. for a minimum of a 5kg purchase.

The discount for a few sets doesn't apply in this case, purely because the process can not be accelerated with one set of moulds.........so unfortunately the time scale to produce 1 set or 10 set will be the same (per unit)

All prices quoted exclude vat
Also asked a firm local to me, waiting on response.
