(CLOSED) Mint Blue spoiler

*** MOD EDIT *** GROUP BUY IS APPROVED BY OMICRON & BOOSTD 7, 7/15/04

I am gauging interest for a group buy on the Mint Blue spoiler. The minimum order to qualify for the group buy is 10 spoilers total (can be 5 c/f and 5 fbrgls). The price quoted below is in US dollars, and does not include shipping which is estimated at $50-$60 for the continental US (exact amount depends on where you live - Automotive R&D is based out of CA) and CA residents add tax.

Please post whether you would want carbon fiber or fiberglass and if you are in 100% or not.

Unpainted fiberglass (retail is $410+):
5 people purchase: $344.50/spoiler
10 people purchase: $323.30/spoiler

Carbon fiber (retail is $540+):
5 people purchase: $483/spoiler
10 people purchase: $456.75/spoiler

In all reality, we would probably just have to wait on shipping time from Japan...BUT the worse case scenario could be 6-8 weeks only if Mint Blue has to build them. My guess is that they would have enough in stock, but I can't guarantee.

If there is enough interest in the group buy, then I will tell you how to place an order and send money.

Just ask if you have any questions.

Here are pictures shown in carbonfiber:

mint blue spoiler

I'm interested in the mint blue spoiler.

I'm thinking fiberglass......but would carbon fiber look ok on velo red?

What was your logic in deciding on the Red vs. CF spoiler, Mike?

Sorry, MikeB, it seems my car keeps getting more and more like yours, other than the wheels. It's not on purpose, it just seems that you have good taste w/ your velo red.

EDIT: 75%, depending on when we get the 10 required.

I think cf would look ok but I dont have any cf on the exterior of my car

If I got a cf spoiler I would want a cf hood and mirrors to match.

I'm gonna stay with all red exterior pieces and keep cf in my interior.

Photos don't show, well one just popped up, but there other two do not. Now the other ones popped up. Maybe you should download and repost them.

Interested in fiberglass, but not 100%.
