[Consynx]

the material is called Lexane
i was talking to this abouta bud, and he said Lexane is a real light glass-like material...what they use in Nascar.

[SilverCell94]

where are we up to in this?? whats the price again and if everyting goes through how long will it take to produce?

[Consynx]

btw, id much rather go with a company that does this so if there's any problems its not too hard to get the $ back...

[PhillyGuy086]

lexan is a great material...i use it for a bunch of projects i do for random stuff...extremely strong and nearly unbreakable...i dunno how the defroster would work on it though...that might be tricky...also puting tints on it might be interesting...depending on how much this ends up being i might be in for it later on down the road when im not a broke a$$ college student

[playr158]

ok well i'm just waiting to see how many people are interested by the end of the week....that is the 18th of september then i will contact the company and talk to him in more depth about this project.....the supra sells for 880$ so i'm goin to try and get 600-700$

[Consynx]

also, how strong will this be
there's something wrong with my hatch it seems to where ive always had to slam it kind of hard to close all the way.

i just dont want to crush it when i give a little elbow grease

im not 100% keep that in mind

I'm a maybe, I really want that but for $880 its just not in gana happen, for a lower price im in.

[playr158]

yea defentily trying for less than 800$ and it will be strong enough to put some elbow grease on

[initialdrift55]

if its 600 or lower for sure i can save the money for it

[jbrads]

Hmm i would really like one of these but i'm in the UK how would shipping work?

Not 100% yet

[playr158]

the company would just add that shipping cost to your total then send it directly to you

[neoklis]

Just an advice guys. its the glass thats really heavy not the metal part.

[playr158]

yes the glass is heavy, but still the switch to the carbonfiber will be benificial to the overal performance of the car....any weight cut on these cars helps a good amount i mean even a difference of 100 lbs is noticalble in my car....thats 1 person.....so any weight reduction helps

[snakeloa]

i would be interested.... if the price won't be to high....

Same thing with shipping (to germany)

[redtcel]

im out for now... moving into a new apt... cant afford much. sorry guys

[RedSunCelica]

this will be a good price and 800 is usually what the ruff price range is so dont expect it to drop to much. but depending on WHEN you need the money depends if im in or not.

[Speeder]

This looks nice!

How much lbs are the original hatch?
