Group Buy: Extreme Dimensions W209/C55 3 Slat Starless Grill

***The original group buy thread was deleted since it was based on EuroTeck completing the group buy, but now Extreme Dimensions has approved and begun the process***

Extreme Dimensions who is a sponsor on this site and closer to me (so I can test fit and be involved with the product) has begun the fabrication process of the starless 3 slat grill. The grill will work with C55's and all W209's. Extreme Dimensions will use its structurally proven Duraflex material. No color options or CF will be available at this time (CF may be available in the future, but not this group buy).

Price is $350 per grill (Previous group buy was $475).

Ryan from Extreme Dimensions will keep us posted with the progress. I apologize for the inconvenience, but please post your name if you are interested. Thank you and lets get this GB going!

2. Astropat
3. EMC
4. Lowpost
5. CME

Simply copy and paste the list and then add your name. Thanks!

Just for reference, here is how a starless 3 slat grill looks:

This grill is made without the emblem purposely. It won't work with Distronic, sorry.

NP. Are you looking to pick up the Mars Red BS you have listed in your sig or do you already have a W209? I saw a post with a mars red BS and this grill, that I can post for your reference.

copy and paste your name into the group buy list that kiamcoj has going, and reserve your spot for one. Initial supplies may be limited and group buy members will certainly be getting a MUCH better price and they will also receive the initial units. If you have any questions please ask and I'll be happy to help

Definitely interested! I tried to photoshop it onto my C55 in Mars Red, but the perspective is all off and i ain't a pro. Still could tell it will look SIKKKK! Anybody got any idea on a C55 Shift Knob Emblem??? The other posts seem to lead nowhere.

Thanks for all your help. Any particular time frame at this point Ryan?
