Lobster molts are not desirable for mounting. From what I understand, they have an enzyme present that makes them deteriorate. If you check with any Marine Biologist that has any familiarity with spiny lobster, you will probably find out that you can not successfully mount a molt. If you can find a live lobster of appropriate size to mount, Jeff Davis is the best lobster taxidermist that I have ever dealt with for lobster. I do not know if he is actively working a this time.
