Hey Guys,
All the remaining hoods are being packed and prepared for shipment. There are four on the water already and another four leaving Saturday. Then the rest are being completed next week and put into a container.

I did find out yesterday that they produced one in FRP so I went ahead and paid for it so its coming over with the last batch in a week or so. If you would like the FRP hood then let me know and I'll put your name on it.

THANK YOU again for all your orders and your patience!!!

The vessel is due into Newark 4/27 and then into Jacksonville 5/7 which will then be released and on to me the following week. Then I'll turn them around the day they arrive. There are four on this shipment and I've already contacted the people they are for and there are four more right behind these which will complete all the open orders. THANK YOU for your patience!!

Hey Guys,
The last hood and trunk are taken. I am ordering more hoods and trunks tomorrow. I thought I was staying ahead of the orders but I guess I was wrong, very sorry.

If you want to put your name on the list to reserve your hood or trunk or combo please let me know. I need to get a 50% deposit to reserve them. Otherwise its first come first serve as they arrive.

The pricing is $1695 for the hood delivered anywhere in the USA and $1595 for the trunk delivered in the USA. Its easier to just include all the freight charges in the price and quote it delivered. If you are outside the USA please let me know and I'll get pricing for freight and give you an exact price.

If you buy the pair together they are $2960 and that includes freight. Thats continues the 10% discount from the original offer.

I will have the hoods and trunks within four to six weeks or sooner.

Thank you again for the orders and I'll keep them coming.

Keith

'09 C63 Performance Package - Steel Grey/Sahara Biege
Dads is ready with my hood and I'll all paid up...now I just need to confirm the painting details. Looking for some help folks.

I'm Steel Grey, and not looking for anything too wild. I was thinking about doing the opposite of the Red/Carbon, Silver/Carbon, and Black/Carbon examples above by going with the middle in stock steel grey, but showing the carbon fiber on the outsides. Opinions?

(The only issue I see is that the side of the hood will not match the pillar running up to the roof. Love some feedback to help make my decision.)
