Default New '08 Lip Kit. Lemited edition maybe? Your help needed.

If you saw my other post about my kit design on clubxb, I have someone that will make it. It will be up to the people in the buy whether or not production continues. Production would also be authorized only by me. SO, we could have a rare kit, or we could limit it to sale only thru me, via this site and clubxb, by word of mouth.

What we need is a group buy of 8-10. $650 each plus shipping. Remember, this is my design, and can be limited. I may even put my name on it! LOL. If we limit it to the first 12 (10 group, mine, and the doner), then the mold will be destroyed.

I also need a doner near Corona, Ca that can give their car up for a week. The doner get's their kit at half price! Plus no shipping, since it will be on their car already.

Here is a refresher of my design. Sorry this is my first post here, I do visit here alot, but I have been on clubxb for a while and am really trying to get this thing going.

KIT IS HOT! I'm willing to be a donor, I live about 20 min from Corona... that $650 price is kinda high for a lip kit though.

Thr kit will be fiber. And the grill does not come with it. I am making the grill myself and may or may not produce it.

Powerwheelz: If you donate your car, you get it for half price.

Guys, email me at autotrendz45@hotmail.com if you want in. I will keep tabs there. Clubxb won't lwt me run a gruop buy, say I have to be a dealer. SO it's up to you guys. I would really like to see this kit made, but can't do it alone.

Is that "Carbon Fiber" or "Fiberglass"?

Is this an All around kit or just Front lip kit? Because $325 is a average price for a lip.

chances are its fiberglass, in which case its real difficult to keep the paint from chipping.
I had a fiberglass kit before and it was always chipping. I asked some shops and they said it happens w/ fiberglass. I even found some places that wouldnt paint it because it was fiberglass

The "Carbon Fiber" was just wishful thinking.

No, it will be fiberglass. But there are additives for paint to make it from shipping so bad. I had a fiberglass FAB, JDM not knockoff, on my first gen and rarely had a problem.
