Hope this helps.

Oh, thats a little different then. Then i may be interested in becoming a vendor. Maybe not right away because i dont offer a lot specifically for the 8 but i do have a lot of wheels/tires..hmmmmm..
If you dont mind telling me, where can i find info on becoming a vendor?
I may have opened my mouth while uninformed in my earlier posts, and for that i apologize.
Thanks

Glad my posts spurred something. I am not sure what it's turning out to mean, but at least it is starting to look promising.

Sorry it brought some harshness on the site, that wasn't my intent.

Hopefully someone will get a GB on Eye Lids, , Clear sides, and Strakes!

This isn't different from most sites as far as I know. If you're a paid advertiser on the forums you can post groupbuys and it's usually only one group buy allowed at a time. I think the reason you don't see as many group buys here is because the aftermarket for the RX-8 isn't as strong as many other cars, and that is a result of aftermarket parts not being in as high a demand. So it's probably not worth the time effort and money to get groupbuys setup in the eyes of the vendors.
