Group Buy for Carbon Fiber Hood for W209 CLK55!

Well, I finally organized this. Below are details.

For the W209 CLK55 Carbon Fiber hood to be made we are looking at around 20 orders to get this done. Once we have 20 confirmed orders we will then buy a factory W209 CLK55 hood and use it as the mold. The hoods will then we ready in about 6 weeks. Possibly less. We are going to offer silver carbon fiber as well as black carbon fiber. The hoods will be a true OEM quality hood. The weight will be less then half of the stock hood. You can either paint these hoods to match your car, leave them carbon fiber, or do some sort of custom paint job on them. The hood will use all the stock mounting hardware from your stock hood to install. The black carbon fiber hood is $699 and silver carbon fiber will be $99 more. Again, we are looking for about 20 orders. Currently I have 2 confirmed orders. If it gets to about 15 hoods total, I will just bite the bullet and purchase the other 5 to get this done.

Now, I am making this a VERY organized group buy. For people that are interested in participating in the group buy, below is a link to check out. You will need to enter all your payment details as well as shipping info just like you are purchasing the hood. We need a $450 deposit to get the hoods ordered and the remanning amount will be charged once the hoods are completed and about to be shipped. NO ONE IS GETTING CHARGED the $450 deposit unless we get to at least 15 confirmed orders. So even though your orders are submitted, again, no one is charged unless we hit 15 orders or more. Once we hit that, you will all be charged the $450 and the manufacturing will then begin on the hoods. Shipping is a flat rate of $129 anywhere in the lower 48 states. Even if you decide to purchase the hood and check out and leave your info for the deposit, you can still backout on this up until we have 15 orders or more. If we have 15 orders or more, you cannot get a refund.

I am posting this in the C55 forum and the W209 CLK forum since the hoods are the same. Even the same factory part #. So if you know anyone with any of those cars that are interested, let them know.

Thanks, if anyone has any questions on anything, email me at info@euroteckmotorsports.com

You gotta put those vents in like the ones that are posted in the other forums. I don't think nobody would reject to having those vents put in for those that are in your group buy. I wasn't interested in the group buy but on the other hand if you made the hood with those vents, I would sign up in a instant.

VERY BIG UPDATE!

Well everyone, Great news! This is finally confirmed and we are ready to start building the carbon fiber hoods with vents that everyone has been patiently waiting for. We are now accepting the deposits. Once we get all deposits we will start the hood process. It will take about approx. 8-12 weeks to make. This is a first come first serve basis. We are making hood for other cars and the CF guys are real busy. So the first 6-8 hoods will me made first. Then the rest will be made after that. So if you would like to get this sooner then some of the other people. I will let the first batch go the people that I receive the orders from first. The price of the hood for the C55/W209 CLK is $790 for black carbon fiber with vents. Silver carbon fiber with vents is an additional $99. A $550 non refundable deposit is required from everyone to start the building process. Once the hoods are made you will be charged the remainder of the cost of the hood you choose. A flat rate shipping cost of $129 will also be charged at that time. That shipping cost only applies to any of the US lower 48 states. We can ship these internationally. Shipping will of course go up.

To leave your deposit please click the link below and select the hood to checkout. Please also include your MBworld user ID in the special comments box.

Thanks! Hopefully within a few days all deposits will be received so we can get these going already. Also, in a few weeks one will be made and i will try to take pictures to show you the fit and finish.
