So far we have about 10 people really interested in this. We'll need about 15 more with cash in hand and then we'll be in pretty good shape. I'll give this a few weeks after the new year when people's bank accounts have recovered some from Christmas and then I'll actively pursue this group buy a little harder.
I'll be working hand and hand with the selected company and I will be the contact person regarding this group buy. The price should stay within the $400-$500 range. To those who are concerned about the security of their money (as they should be), I am not a difficult person to get a hold of and my contact information will be readily available to anyone interested. My Nextel is on 24/7 if worse comes to worse. Either that or have Rye Lou come hunt me down at my work
.
The process will go as follows:
- The money will be collected from all interested parties into a paypal account.
- After all money is collected, we will then go over the final details with the selected Ground Effects company and wire them the money.
- Soon after, they will get back to us with various designs based on the Saleen Front End with a few tweeks that we've suggested.
- After we ALL decide on the best kit, they will go ahead with the custom fabrication of the front end and my SVT will be the test monkey if necessary.
- After they get the mold down perfect, they will then finish the rest of the kits and they will be sent out to everyone primed and ready for paint with instructions for installation.
The sooner we get 25 or so people, the sooner we'll have the kit. I would say that it would not be out of the question to have this by March if things were to go smoothly and the interest was there. And remember that if this group buy goes well, most likely a custom hood and sideskirts will probably follow. All interested parties would be wise to advertise this to their fellow SVT owners. Like I said, the sooner the better.
