Dont think you will have much trouble getting rid of them for the right price in here.

I would love a set Bruce is probably packing them in a box with the rest of the parts I paid for and never got though, I first will have to move the split IC tank he mounted in the wrong spot, the air duct won't even connect in the front anymore,this is in the way..

Yep TTMFTMW
Can Eurocharged fit on them?
I guess if I use just "EC" it will catch on...

you just gave me an idea! those who can send me some kinda email trail showing your own "HORROR STORY" gets free knock-off poop scoops. if you already have them, then you can pay forward your free set to another member.

that should be enough karma points for my airmatic to never fail, yeah?

but seriously though, i'm about 75 days out from the scoops getting to my door. ocean freight from SHA to LGB is 14 days alone.

I'm interested in the scoops and the rest of Berti's story.

Keep us posted

updating errbody. got the number back, I can totally cover myself at $50 shipped, including paypal fees. That's $5 more than the original estimate, but domestic shipping+paypal+duty+trans-pacific shipping alone is $9.75 (and this is with massive hook-ups in the trans-pacific shipping portion). Paypal fees cost the same as trans-pac shipping via ocean freight.

I'm going to put the deposit on the project for 100 pcs of pooper scoopers, and they can hopefully start production end of this month.

Yeah you might want to start your own thread to peddle wares.
Or pony up for a sponsored gig. Just saying.

Sweet deal. Are you going to start a thread?

I am still in for a set. Are these painted as someone above mentioned? Thanks.

Also, besides eye candy, do these provide ANY sort of performance gains?

Well noted. TBH, it's < $5/pair "profit". (I can provide proforma invoice + cost breakdown ala kickstarter.) Most likely 100 sets won't be all be taken so I'm certainly going to take a loss. There's definitely no $ to pay for a sponsorship after I give away a few units for free. Perhaps IB can provide a sponsorship grant for some gas money to USPS?

It'll be black. No stickers, no labels.

If you get tired of it, you can take it off and use it to scoop the dog's p00p? I don't think anyone's going to the dragstrip to benchmark these 2 chunks of metal.

I'll take a set of pooper scoopers. How will we know when they are ready to ship? For the people who don't live on car forums.
