I'm in for a group buy on a kit. Would hope to get prices below $400 though. $300 would be nice, I'd buy one right now =) How would I get the Toyota OEM rear extensions?? I have rock chips on the area under my bumper and these would cover that up!! Also want some side skirts for the same reason.

wow, the wing is kinda pricey for a replica.
It would be nice to get splitters along with that price. I probably will be in if there is a need for an extra buyer. |

yeah, 435 is quite a bit. but I'll see if I can find some more people.
also I don't know where you are getting the TRD wing but I found a place selling them for 650 USD: http://www.hirano-tire.co.jp/paji107.htm |

The price of USD650 is the bumper but not the wing. The wing price should be USD740 in the that web-site. And sales tax & delivery are not included. (I studied Japanese in university) USD435 for a replica maybe a bit expensive.... But I need to buy the original TRD wing to make the mold for the replica. The original one cost me near USD1000. Hope you all can understand. I promise that if more than 15 people in the group buy, the price will be lower(estimate under USD400). This post has been edited by chrisc: Dec 5, 2003 - 1:01 PM |

chrisc, I really appreciate what your doing for us, but your mistaken on this one. I lived in Japan for half my life, and that page clearly says the TRD wing for ST206 (without paint) goes for 81000 yen which converts to 647.43 USD. Besides, I was just stating it as a possible source for you to acquire the wing at a lower price, thereby passing the savings on to us. |

ghost_dog - thanks for your appreciate.
 Is it really USD650? But as my convertion is 740.  Let me check the exchange rate. Yes I want to save more on the cost then you all can save more as well.

If its possible, try to give us a package deal so that the TRD Wing seems kind of expensive but with the splitters as a package the price will seem more reasonable.
heh...you probably would lose this group buy if someone gets a hold of a cheaper trd wing that is already a replica and sells it to us as a group buy for cheap. |

I will try to make a package deal. But we are still finding both the splitters and rear extensions right now. Hope can get the information soon. Yes, you're right. I will probably lose this group buy if someone got a replica already..... I want to find a replica too..... |

Dear all I think I cannot get the oem extensions in the near future. This is because the extensions must come with the side skirts and the price is much more higher than the TRD Wing. So I think I'll make the group buy of TRD Wing & HIRO splitters. I think the prices are very reasonable right now. But the factory can lower the cost again if I order both 20 wings and 20 splitters from them. If interested parties please send an e-mail to me at sales@hediko.com. I hope we can get 20 buyers in both field then we can get futher discount. Hope this group buy can be closed by 12/12 as I needed to confirm to get the original wing and splitters soon. So please help to spread out this massage to other members and friends asap. Futher information will be informed through e-mail. |

Hey the package deal is pretty good. Its still kind of pricey but reasonable.
I hope we can get 20 buyers, crossing fingers. I would really try to get the spoiler price a little lower. |

Those prices do seem good to me, as long as the replica TRD wing is high quality and fits well without modification.
Unfortunately, I need to save all of my money to take my car to a different shop to get the car finished, so I can't get in on any of this stuff right now.

Dear all, I will close this group buy by the beginning of Jan. And sure I will collect the money on next month, hope most of you are solvent at that time. But I need the estimate number of buyers right now. Now I need 15 buyers in both TRD wing & HIRO splitters. I will try my best to lower the cost of the factory. But now the prices are as follows:
TRD Wing: USD410 (Air) USD375 (Surface) HIRO Splitters: USD190 (Air) USD185 (Surface) Package of TRD Wing+Hiro Splitters: USD585 (Air) USD540 (Surface) Confirmed buyers: (12/7 updated) TRD Wing: 1. rlan214 (package deal) HIRO Splitters: 1. Jabberwock 2. rlan214 (package deal) |
