hey charlie...is this hood specially made for this group buy? or are they gonna continue to make em??  and if they do continue to make em, how much would they cost if it were NOT bought in a group buy?

it's specifically for the buy, they consider it a customization, not a new product, and they would not continue to make them.

it will be very good quality, VIS makes great stuff.

i'll see what i can find out about the time frame.

as for when you need the money, as soon as we have 15 people we're going, so however long that takes.

it looks like they are in Monterey Park, CA, i'll ask about pickups, but i'm sure you can.

Sorry guys but I gotta take my name off the list frown.gif I did some math and I cant afford to pay $600 for a hood at the moment...... I thought I was for sure able to but I guess not. Maybe when I have the money I will try to start another GB for this same thing... you think VIS would do that?

I can ask, but again, i doubt the demand would be significant enough to do it. i think your best bet if you want it, is find 15 people like yourself, who really want it but don't have the $$ now, and set up a 2nd round. i can do all the communication with them again later to make things easier, but that's an idea.

NEW INFO!

all hoods need to be paid in full in advance. after he has all the payments, 7-9 weeks to produce the hoods and customizing. he said the long time was because when they customize something they want it to be to the level of their normally produced products, which is good for us! yay! after they are done, he gets them and ships them in 2-3 days from the shop, and it takes 5-7 business days to send them to us.

so cal guys are welcome to pick up the hoods, i'll get the addy for you when the time gets closer.

post ?s! lets get those last people we need so we can get this ball rollin'!

Yep. It just means that VIS is going to do a quality job though and not rush this through. smile.gif

Charlie, the hoods are going to have carbon fiber that wraps around the edges, right? Most hoods these days do, but I'm just making sure. wink.gif

Once we get fifteen people who will for sure buy this hood. Also, your list isn't accurate and doesn't include some of the latest members who joined. wink.gif

And to NEVERSTOP, I'd rather have a TRD-style carbon fiber hood than a GT-Four-style carbon fiber hood. I think it'll look so sweet, and won't make the front of the car look too busy. smile.gif

Just a couple of questions before I add my name.

1. Who do we actually pay the money to?

2. If the GB falls apart for some reason... how do we get our money back? Are there any guarentees/Insurance? (Reason for this is I have seen GB's on other sites go pear shape and people loose thier money)

3. Has ne one used these guys for custom stuff before?

4. With the vents... would they cause any problems in wet weather? (Remember... the UK ain't as sunny as the US)

5. How much would shipping be to the UK?

6. Would the hood fit a UK spec 6g celica?

Look forward to your comments/answers.
