CLK - Lorinser Deck Lid/Roof Spoiler Group Buy

OK... I know many of you have showed interest in having a Group Buy for the Lorinser Deck Lid spoiler & the Lorinser Roof Wing Spoiler.

But, in order for the Group Buy to actually take place, we need a confirmed minimum of 10 orders.

Prices are not yet confirmed, but, as any group buy goes, the more that sign up, the cheaper they will be.

The list prices for each are as follows:
Lorinser Rear Decklid Spoiler: $445
Lorinser Roof Wing Spoiler: $459

If we have 10+ orders, here are the potential prices:
Lorinser Rear Decklid Spoiler: $405
Lorinser Roof Wing Spoiler: $415

So far, based on a previous thread, we have a few tentative takers:

Viktorious
SoCalCLK
Samoan_Ridah
J Lucas

Here is a picture of Ben's HOT car with both spoilers...



You can find more pics of Ben's HOT car on the evosport page HERE

For all those who are interested, please send me an email confirming your authentic interest in the spoilers. Sorry I couldn't provide you with more exact pricing at this point.

Danny

Hmm... those are pretty good prices...
Well, the prices I quoted are off from the evosport page, and I haven't really shopped around for the best prices.

Ben said the margins on those aren't very much, so I figured most shops would price them in the similar range. I'll dig a little deeper....

I'm assuming this price is just for the actual spoiler. Do you know how much installation and painting, if necessary, runs for?

I would be interested in the roof spoiler but I have seen it for cheaper also. Can't remember which site it was. Keep me posted on the prices you find and I will do the same.

Thanks.

Interested, But...

Yeah for $400+, the price doesn't really excite me. I'm still interested, but maybr if we can get it for around $250 (am I out of the ballpark?). :o

Also a couple thoughts: How much for paint and install: another $100?

And how many of these spoilers do these guys REALLY sell every month! I mean, in this recession and Bear market, I doubt Lorinser Deck Lids for W208s are really FLYING out of the door!!

This GB is pretty much dead... sorry guys.

the margin on Lorinser products like these are very low... every retailer I've spoken to has told me their margin is about 15-20%, and the best they can do on a GB is about 12-15% discount...

And yea, paint is gonna run close to another $100...

Thumbs up Thanks!

Danny, Thanks for trying to hook this up and giving us the updates. Maybe you and I could get the spoilers at the same time and save on paint, being that we are both Black Opal!!

Oooh... that sounds like a good idea... not only GB, but Group Paint... yeah, that would be cheaper...

I'll keep it in mind when i'm ready...

That last pic in the first message in the thread kinda looks like a 2000 Grand Prix Coupe. Sorry, just stating an observation. I still think the car looks hot. I'd hit it!

I don't see any similarities to a Grand Prix ???

But then again I've never paid too much attention to the Grand Prix to know any of its detailed curves or anything like that.
