Yes! Awesome, my car looks hideous without iit lol. Please get me the tracking number when it's ready. Maybe we can overnight this too? I hate taking the risk with carbon fiber and letting it switch thru multiple hands, you know how things can turn out...

looks like its going to come down to the deadline like the other group buy again. lots of interest on the cf side skirt but no payment yet. so far we got 4 member who paid(but wont be charge until we get 10 member). if we get 5 more member to paid, i'll buy another one so we can close the deal again so we can get this thing started. lets shoot for 2 week as deadline (January 15)?

Yeah, sadly guys, if this is not completed soon we will need to cancel this because otherwise we just will have no time to do it at all.

If I need to order a 2nd set to get this going, I am willing to do it as well.

****, I need this in my life, count me in for two if it has to come to that as well. So we got 3 people getting 2 sets each. How about this Neal;
If we dont get 10 people by the deadline, can we make this a 5 piece limited edition as a super exclusive way to go out with a bang for the last group buy. You see 3 of us already don't mind paying what needs to be paid for these skirts. And I understand the whole reason of a group buy is to get more people to make the price less. Seeing as there may not be 10 (crossing fingers there will be) the lower amount of people, the higher the price..I'm down though. If you were to make 5 sets at $1,650/$1,700 a set would that work?
Would you kenpho10, JDS28 or even Dafirm24 mind paying over $1,600 but only have 5 sets made?
I want this Neal. We need to get this group buy trilogy finished.

If there is enough interest, we can do it. This would also be our "final" group buy. I think a nice clean thin simple side skirt can be a nice touch too. I will try to work out some pricing...

My thought on this is a wee bit different . As with the CF diffuser, folks who don't frequent this board often will eventually come out of the woodwork looking to buy one. This is bound to happen. I said I'd buy 2 as I'm pretty sure at some point I'd be able to offload one set to someone else. I really want to ensure we get these CF skirts to complete our CF set

So instead of getting 1 for $1700 on a 5 piece production, I'd rather get 2 for $1700 on a 10 piece production.

Now, if Neal can come up with an intermediate price for say a 7-8 piece production, that would be cool . We are already at 7 committed right now, if 3 of us take 2 sets each.

how many more people are needed? What are these actually going to look like? I liked how the SLK looked over the Lambo but the CL is closer in length to the Lambo then the SLK so its hard to say...any photoshops or anything on this before I throw down 9 hundo?

you would just need to believe in neal and euroteck for this. everything he did for the w215 group buy looks great so far. trust me, if you dont want it. i know you can off load it(for more then $900) easily to another w215 owner once they see its to late to buy one. bty i do like the slk looked over the lambo too

it's just really bad timing on this (for me) to be honest. I just unloaded everything I have on Christmas gifts and New Years parties...and my family is quite large so it's just kinda hard to come up with $900 right now

They are not going to look like the lambo ones. They will be like the SLK style. just not stick out AS much, and not be AS thick. Very close though. We will play with the design and see what looks best when we begin.
