The guy in the UK emailed me back today and the price was 378 pounds ($675) shipped per set for 5 sets. I was quoted $600 for one set last year so something is not right. I emailed him again pointing this out and asking for clarification. If we can't get it down to around $500, I am not going to run the group buy.

QUOTE(jgreening @ Aug 25, 2005 - 2:47 PM) To let everyone know, I am working on a solution here that will bring these skirts to the U.S. for UNDER $500 per pair. We will need a few more buyers though. This is still in development but the quality should be top notch. I will release details as they become available. [right][snapback]327953[/snapback][/right] NICE! do your thing, jay, lets make this happen!! ![]() ![]() -------------------- Former Team 5SFTE pro member ;)

Good News TRD Skirt Lovers!
Shipping prices from the UK company were unreasonable. Also, the skirts are expensive by themselves. As a result, I contacted our own Doggy a.k.a. Romas of DCW and he has agreed to make these in a group buy IF there is enough interest. Of course, you can expect the quality and fitment that buying from Doggy always means. The preliminary prices are as follows: 5 buyers: $435 per set shipped to your door. 8 buyers: $405 per set shipped to your door. We will need a deposit of $100 to confirm your interest. The group buy is only guaranteed to be open until we have 5 buyers. If there is continued interest, we may hold it open for a short while longer to get the price down a bit. These prices are subject to change based on how much the originals need to be reworked and how much material will be required. Realistically, a set could cost $35 more or less depending on circumstances. If you are not in the U.S. your price might be more (or less if you are near Romas) We will need five members for this to work out. Manny, DEF and I are in. That means we need at least two more. 1. jgreening 2. presure2 3. defgeph This post has been edited by jgreening: Aug 25, 2005 - 5:37 PM -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |

[right][snapback]328192[/snapback][/right] $100 will be due when group buy closes - hopefully within a few weeks. Production and delivery is estimated at 4 weeks from the time we get the original skirts. I do not yet know about their availability so I will have to see. Assuming they are available, time should be under 6 weeks. I will let Romas chime in if he thinks differently. Please realize that all times are estimates based on Doggy's schedule and little information regarding the availability of original skirts.

I got good news on the timing in getting the skirts. There is a one day wait from the supplier. The 5-6 week estimate from the time the group buy closes should be close assuming doggy doesn't have unexpected delays in production.
