-looking for a new set of rubber seals that go around the door opening (both sides)
Would also consider used set but only if mint condition, without cracking or tears.

Didn’t we have someone making these? I’ll dig around and see if I can locate the person.

I don't believe so. Maybe you are thinking of the dew wipes?
Fierostore had them made years ago, but they said they have no intention of bringing it back. Tool too long to sell off their inventory

Sadly it was probably a matter of bad timing (that is, if they would have had them reproduced later, they would have sold faster).
I wonder if they would entertain a pre-purchase, where those that want a set pay up front to them, and if they don't get enough orders by x-date, money is refunded. Even if it gets close to what they need to do a run, they might cover the gap since it reduces their impact. I would spring for three or so sets.
I've been on the hunt for these as well. When they do pop up, they sell very quickly.

I agree. I think TFS had them made too early. These are large, bulky rubber pieces that are probably good for 20-25 years if maintained, so 10-15 year old Fieros didn't tend to need them.
When I spoke to Matt at TFS, he didn't seem to know what happened with the original extrusion tooling and had no interest in bringing back this part unfortunately. It's too bad- it will become increasingly neeed as the existing rubber seals age.
