What can I make?

I work for an engineering firm which has a laser capable of cutting mild steel up to 20mm, a deburring machine, CNC folding and fabricators. I'm thinking about making parts for cars, such as Wheel Spacers and Turbo adapter plates. I'm wanting to keep fabrication to a minimum. So what else do you think I could make? Thanks.

Manifold Flanges and exhaust flanges for the derv guys
Custom under-bonnet covers for stuff (battery/PAS res/engine/etc)?
I'm always amazed at the stuff that comes out of the CNC machines on tv, like on American chopper and similar lol.

Some good ideas guys, im thinking of stainless steel switch panels aswell for other cars aswell as 306s.
CNC machines beat injection moulding i'd say

Are we talking possibly small-scale too?
Like some metal upgrades for an rc car?! I need to manufacture a miniature sump guard... Disclaimer: The above is not to be taken to heart and is probably a joke, grow up you big girl.

Could make some bottle openers with the 306oc logo on and make a donation to the club. Ill be able to make to most scales i'd say.
The lions mouth on the logo could be where the bottle can be opened haha

Here is a bottle opener ive made before. So the opener could be the lions mouth, then 306OC where D&M is.

That would be fairly awesome.
Second the shout for exhaust manifold flanges, HDis could seriously use a bigger mani.
