I would bet those curtain rod covers would be better
served as a vacuum formed part than an injection
molded part (cheaper tooling, but a little more
expensive piece part price... but still in the "buck
or two" range).

I know of vendors, but that is up here in Vancouver,
BC (Canada, eh), and i would be surprised if you ever
made up the cost of tooling...  I would estimate $500
to $1k for a vac form.  Injection molding would be
closer to $3k or $4k

Just a couple things to think about...

Don't a couple list members have little vacuum formers
in their garages?  I remember something about this a
little while back...
