You mentioned you were going to buy them after I tried getting a collection going to get you some.

I can try to get people to chip in like $10 each and then buy the set and have them shipped to you, but I don't want people to think I would take their money and run.

Here's the link to japanparts.com where you can buy them. You said you wanted to duplicate the Auto-Bahn ones right?

FRP FENDER VENTS

Here's a picture again for all interested.

Jay here is a list that I have compiled from the thread:

1.Drksyde
2.TownDrunk
3.BigOLundh
4.Swoope
5.Dominion!
6.SpokenStone
7.Silvere8
8.ShiftyDevil
9.AvalonStar
10.Roan
11.Lil BenNY
12.Mafia
13.DTorre
14.NgoRX8
15.RA-Eight

Well thats 15... With this many if we all chipped in $20 then we could pay for one set and shipping.

Maybe if we did this and you made them Jay, you could give the original donators the $20 of the price of your newest product???

Sweet Dominion! Great thats a confirmed 15.

Now... Would you all be willing to chip in the $20 if Evo-r is willing to give us the $20 back in discount off these vents when they are complete?

DRKSYDE - Thanks for doing the leg work, and getting people interested.

I don't have a problem putting money down...but I believe two questions need to be answered before anyone is willing to shell out any dough:

1) If we have 15 of these made (assuming all 15 confirmed people are committed), what is the approximate cost per set?
2) Evo-r needs to confirm that they will give us the $20 back in discount off these vents?

No problem RA,

I like doing this sort of thing, especially when I have a vested interest in the final result.

I will PM Jay to see if he is interested in this proposition. He did quote me a price for the fiberglass ones on PM and I will check with him to see if that is a final price before I blurt it out.

Stay tuned and thanks for your support!

Ok everyone,

Confirmed with Jay from Evo-R. He is going to start a GB thread for these vents.


Price for forum members will be $78.00

Price for the 15 listed above will be $58.00 after their $20 discount from their downpayment.

I now need to confirm with everyone that they are willing to do the $20 up front so that we can purchase a set of these for Jay to duplicate.

Please confirm via this thread so others can see. Once confirmed on the thread I will PM you a Paypal address to send the funds to.

The faster I get the $20 from you all the faster we can get these made.

Thanks!

Unpainted fiberglass is what we talked about. We never discussed the CF option cause its so expensive.

Thanks for the commitment swoope! I'll PM you once we get some more commitment for the paypal.

Ok thats 3 down! 12 to go! I'm gonna start PM'ing everyone on the list in a few days if I don't here from them.

I doubt you would be able to Dom. If you look at the picture they are shaped way different. You could try! Maybe some grinding and you'll get them to fit. I have a feeling that these will look WAY cooler than strakes any day!

DOM confirmed. Thats four! Slowly but surely.
