It seems plausible that I would be interested ina full CF unit come springtime, so I'm interested, but not a million percent certain.

BRGREEN8

let me know when you are certain, and prices on the first page only applies to this very first group buy. after this, prices are gonna go up quite a bit.

What is a reasonable estimate window on the first delivery?

BRGREEN8

Once I have 10 people on the list, it'll take them 1 week to finish up everything. After that, they'll be able to crank out 4 per week. It is on a first come first serve base. Local pick up is welcomed, shipping will be 120-150 in the US

I'm going to drop off my car today at the shop, as soon as they align my trunk properly I'll go by and take pictures.

3 people now, anyone else interested?

as of now, they are fixing the fitment issue, and they are also going to wetsand the trunk. By this time tomorrow, they should have a new mold, then a finish product in cf by next week. Target weight is 5 pounds, which is 2 pound lighter than stock, and around 4 pounds lighter than stock trunk with the mint blue wing. Fiberglass version and carbon fiber version will have a few ounces in weight difference, but no more than that.

I am sooo close! I just need to find out if I can paint it Phantom Blue - but kind of pearlized so the CF shows through a little bit. If I can do that for under $1000; hood plus paint. I am in!

Anyone know of what I am talking about?

BRGREEN8

why dont you do what bigO is doing? fiberglass on top with carbon underside. that way you can paint over the fiberglass top, and when you open your trunk, people are gonna think you have a double side cf trunk.

That is a cool idea - but weight would go up for that right?

I know I want the best of both worlds....I am a picky *****.

BRGREEN8

its a difference of a few ounces bro.

BRGREEN8

I'm going to the shop later on today, will keep you guys posted if there is anything new.

BRGREEN8

I should have a finished product by the end of this week

Really interested but holding off until I see the finished product.

BRGREEN8

its coming, tomorrow they should finish the first stage of molding ( theyve already worked out the little details with the trunk, took all the measurements again to make sure everything is even, shaved down all the extra bondo and fiberglass so the trunk is back to exact stock measurements), by wednesday they should have a new mold, and by friday (if everything goes right) they should have a finished trunk.
