Aluminum gauge bezels- 5th gen- $14.95

GROUP DEAL

The regular price is $30.00, plus $7 shipping, but if I can get 5 people to buy these, I can get you them for half price ($23 shipped).

Are these made out of real aluminum or are they synthetic?

To answer a few questions that have been e-mailed to me.....

These are being purchased from ebay seller "wehavegoods". He has a 351 ebay rating with only a few miscellanous negative feedbacks. His website is www.autoaccessorystore.com

Gauge rings will fit after you install this.

Yes, this goes underneath the clear plastic cover

I am not sure how payment will work. He might have to ship all of the units to me, then I ship them to you.

He has carbon fiber, but it is synthetic.

Here is how this will work. You send me money. I place the order. Entire order gets shipped to me. I ship them out individually to you. The shipping price might be a bit more because I only use UPS with insurance and tracking. I am thinking $8 or $9 would cover me. if you are worried about me stealing money from you, I have flawless bay rating (pliskin3).

He will not ship them to you individually. That is the reason why we are getting such a huge discount on this.

I'll be collecting the names together for ordering and will post up an order deadline for this group deal. It will probably be this Sunday for you to submit payment to me. But please don't send the money yet until I get more details.

Its an odd shaped piece. You dont want it in an envelope obviously, so I'd think 7 is reasonable.

Andy,
How long will this groupdeal last? have you ordered yours yet and and installed it. I am curious to see what they look like installed. I think someone posted pics of it installed but I don't think the pictures gave the bezel justice.

Okay, here's the deal. I asked the manufacturer about these pieces and he said, "They are not real aluminum and it does not have the clear coat. It will look like the Aluminum shifter plate around the shifter of a 2000-up Maxima."

In all honesty, I am not too familiar with synthetic aluminum. I am not making a penny on this whatsoever, so feel free to give me your honest opinions.

The length of this group deal will be one week, so people who pay early don't have to sit around forever waiting for theirs. The "deadline" to pay me via Paypal(asu174@yahoo.com)/money order(PM me for address) will be Tuesday, January 28th. The money needs to be in my hands by this date. Also, please specify automatic or manual.

Regarding shipping: He is shipping all of the units to me. I have to turn around and ship them to you. UPS Ground is by far the easiest method for me to ship, but price will vary based on location. I am in Arizona.

Essentially, I don't want to get screwed here. What I am thinking is that you all pay me a flat amount of $23. I know $8/shipping seems high, but I will most likely be buying boxes for these as well.

Any feedback? If not, let the fun begin!

Install is easy, just pull the gauge cluster, and that's pretty much it. Shouldn't take more than 30-45 minutes total.

And synthetic aluminum is basically plastic. It's ABS plastic w/ a faux aluminum finish.

I'll take a fake carbon fiber one for a 6-speed. If you can't get the cf ones, I will take an aluminum one. Thanks for coordinating this.
