New Body Kit -- You Can Design It, Everyone Inside! Options

[Inferno]

Hello there,

I got in touch with a guy from BodyKits.org,named Andrew, and I got to talk to him on AIM about a new body-kit for the 6th Generation Celica.

It can be ANY design you want, and we can create it with drawings and such. But, we'll need 10 people to get them made. The first ten will be 750 dollars. They'll need a test-car for about 4 weeks. The test-car will get a free kit. After the first ten, the kits will cost 980 dollars.

Also, they can make custom hoods too. So maybe 10 people would want a USA made GT-Four hood, so it might cut down on shipping costs. Or maybe you'd like to design your own. The price for the hoods is 450 dollars for the first ten.

So, if anyone decides to go with this, the kit and/or hood that is designed MUST be agreed upon by all ten buyers, they can't make two different kits and not have 10 people for them.

I realize that some people don't have kits or many people have the same kits because of the not-so-many american manufacturers/distributors for 6th Generation Celica kits. So, some of you may want this, and some may not. If you don't want to do it, it's ok, because it's your money. I just thought I would try and help out some 6G guys or gals that want a little variety.

So, let's get a little input, people. What do you guys think?

Any word on pricing yet?

For the quoted question, they are 750 for the first ten kits. 980 a kit after that. The hood costs 450 for the first ten.

I updated the list.

GT-Four Hood:

1. FallenHero

5. presure2
6. duck9483
7. Coomer
8. OCU_Celi


A few things: Remember that we'll have to locate someone willing to let us BORROW their kit in order to do this. Either that, or the 2K-3K(K=thousand) cost for the kit will be divided among all the buyers.

Second, they'll need a test car, and the test car gets the first kit and gets it for free. From what I can tell on their site is that they're located in Walnut CA, 91788.

Shipping is 130 bucks to any business address. I'm guessing that means in the continental US. But, I could be wrong, I'll contact Andrew and ask him.

Because one of the guys needing to wait until June (It's not that long away), I'd suggest that the groupbuy wait until June. This just allows more time to get people in on the deal.
