Carbon Fiber Hood and Trunk Group Buy!

Trying to organize a group buy with Evosport and Vorsteiner to produce some carbon fiber hoods and CSL style trunks. Those of you that know about Vorsteiner know they make very good quality products with excellent fitment. If we can get 10 people for either one they will make them. Here is the pricing for the M3's for an estimate of what the pricing will be:
Hood:
- CF/CF (inside and out) $2099.00
- CF/DVWP (single sided with CF in the inside) $1725
- DVWP w/CF vents $1500

Trunk:
- CF/CF (inside and out) $1649
- CF/DVWP (single sided with CF in the inside) $1349
- DVWP $995

If you're interested post up. Go here to see some of their products: http://www.vorsteiner.com/

Look at my sig, I have one.

These hoods are much better quality, lighter, and stronger. Plus these hoods will have slits in them like the M3 GTR hoods.

Just to make things clear. I have that c/f hood that was posted earlier. Its a thin sheet of c/f and is flexible. You can push down on it and it flexes alot! Its a thin sheet of c/f and the rest of the hood is fiberglass. A bunch of my friends have the Vorsteiner hoods on their M3's. I can tell you that its worth the price difference. I've seen models lay on their hoods (they are very strong) and you can get it full c/f inside and out. This means a lighter, stronger hood. Some models asked if they could get on the hood of my car and I said "Not unless you want to pay for it when you fall through!" lol Plus they have the slits. I will get pic sof my friends M3s and post em so you see what I'm talking about. And the CSL trunk will be droolworthy! I understand its more expensive but sometimes you get what you pay for.

Sorry for the late response, I was at the Tuner War car show and just got home.

I'm not selling my c/f hood, its on my other car.

Fitment should be perfect. I've seen vorsteiner products a million times before and fitment has always been perfect.

So far:
1) Me
2) AMGEEZY
3) Tery

Freddy, you should get in on this!
