Where the hell is everybody's money? It seems that the more interest that people show, the less money that seems to come in. I already have six money orders. If a few of you could buy in, then we can get these damn things made. The six of us that have already paid are still waiting on the rest of you that said you were gonna send your money. I don't get it. I had at least 15 people who said they were down and ready to send money. It's just $450 people, not a few thousand dollars. Honestly, how hard is it to come up with $225 down and then the rest later. I need to know if the rest of you are serious or not because you guys are holding us back.

damn right.. im getting kinda ****y wissy about this... its already the end of Feb.. i dont want this CF hood by xmas of 2002

 

Not to try to be rude enough to say "I told you so", but I knew this would happen and I mentioned it earlier..

everyone always talks about eveyrthing they're going to do, then when the time comes to put the money down, you're lucky to have 1 in 20 that actually do it.
same thing when I set up group buys on other parts. that's why I don't waste my time with it anymore.

 

thats how it is with everything
people say i want it i want it
but when time comes, where is everybody?
dumb nuts

i woulda wanted a cF hood, but only for lightness
and heat dispersal... i dont like the way it looks on
a red car... any ideas on a light hood that looks stock?
fiberglass?

 

yah fiber glass.. or carbon fiber...

i dunno anything else? if your skilled enough you could make your own fiberglass hood, they sell fiberglass weave at place's like home depot.. even walmart has similar product.

but you would need a large enough oven, and large enought refriderator to do so

 

CF is paintable

 

help you out but I just dumped 600 into my tranny and soon like 700 into suspension, id like to get the hood but I want a kit first. If you still havent completed the order by the end of next week and I go all my suspension done and I still have some cash ill buy in, I dont want to get anyones hopes up but theres a 50% chance, oh I did get your email but theres not enough demand for them so I cant lay out the money for them,

 

Hmm....that sucks. Although I agree with Matt! I think it's time to do some thread searching and track down all those people who committed to buying. They're not gonna openly come out about it. Single them all out.

 

I am in debt a lot of money and forked up about $1900 for my tranny and seals but still took one of my checks and sent $225. I really don't like CF look but I love having the wieght reduction and being the reason why we have one more product out there for arre maximas. **** I heard so many complaints that 4th gens are better because of the S/c and how much more available and you would buy if aviable. That ****es me off that people are all talk no show, **** I say Im in or will help get more products available I don't back out when the time comes!! There would be a S/C available if we all really where commited to getting one. Stealin would not say no if there was money in front of them

 

David....how many more people do you need? You can count me in if this is still available. Some things have arised the past few hours and well, heck, I'm down for a CF hood. I definitly have the money so just lemme know!

Jim@logical-approach.com

 

Just for joining the group deal your next is on me!

 

Ok, so.......how many people do we need exactly and how many people are fully committed so far? And what company is making them? Anyone know?

 

where do I send $225 to? somebody email me. I would love to save the weight and have a somewhat unique/rare mod. I didn't say I was in before, but with that down and the rest later you can't go wrong. Thanks whoever put this together (David C.?)

let me know

-Bret

 

You are my new best friend

 

What is this half down stuff? When does the rest need to be paid?

 

if I remember correctly...he said in another post the rest gets paid when the hoods are completed(in a few months). but thats only if they can get 10 orders to begin with. I feel sorry for those that paid and now people are backing out on them...that blows big time!

but those CF hoods are pretty worthwhile too...I felt one on a Sentra the other day at the track...I think the stock hood was 30-40lbs and the CF was only 9lbs!!!!!!

 

Time to check the bank book.

 

David....we have one more that is down for it. Dunno his name. He's not registered on the .Org so I thought I'd post for him. His e-mail addy: 8ball@4dsc.com

Does that make 10 now?

Dmontz.....you know you wanna join in.

 

I do, I do tell me about the half pay. And when I have to pay the rest???

 

I have four money orders here with me right now. There's supposedly another two that are lost in the mail, but I'm not sure how accurate this is. Both of these money orders should have arrived by now. There's another person that is waiting on his insurance company to come through with a check and then countless other people who said they were interested, but have apparently backed out. For those of you who are seriously interested, your help would put us much closer to the ten people needed. The hoods will cost $225 down (50% of the total) and then the other $225 plus shipping will be due upon completion. These hoods retail for $600 plus shipping, but they have extended me the $450 plus shipping price. Send your money orders as soon as possible to:

David Cohen

Please include a slip of paper that includes your name, address, email address and telephone number. This will help me get a hold of you guys in case I have to. Please pass this info to any of your other third gen buddies. And remember, the faster I get your money, the faster we can get these damn things made.

Thanks,
David C.

 

David.....my M/O will be in the mail tomorrow! The rest of you nerds pay up!!

 

Who is making them? So there are no carbon fiber hoods available for the 3rd gen? Cause I know when the first ones were fabed for the 4th gen. They were terrible.

 

Fiber Images will be making them. Top quality...check out their website.

Hay david.. my MO expires in 90 days.. so its almost 2 months now that ive sent the money, make sure you cash it, or deposit it.. before the MO becomes void... if not let me know i`ll tell my bank whats up

 

I missed the details in the original post but how much will shipping be and whats the expected time between all money recieved and shipment?

 

Dammit, you guys are gonna make me send in my money aren't you! , i'll send but i'm gonna be ****ed if my money order expires!

 

Shipping will probably be around $75-$100 per hood depending on where you live. This is just a ballpark. I'm not certain how much exactly. Once the money is received, it will apporximately take a month turn around. This is from the time I send my hood in to the time you receive yours. Do not worry about money orders expiring, I will cash them before it's too late. At any rate, I work at a bank so I have connections in case this may happen.

Thanks,
David C.

 

word tru dat yo..

 

but im not sure how it would look on a red car. can someone find me some pics, I found some but they were the red/black carbon fiber weave. thanks

 

anymore spots left??? my insurance check from my accident will be here very soon, so I'll have some extra money.....when is the due date for the first $225??

 

are you just going to drive around for a month without a hood???

 

DA-MAX.....e-mail David C. about it. I dont think there's like a set due date, I think we just had to get like 10 people for them to make it and I'm sure you still have time before he sends it all in.

MAXIMApowr@aol.com is his e-mail

 

hey david...i talked to you at the import revolution today and i think i'm gonna send the money order this friday...i live in houston, so it shouldn't take long to get to you or get "lost in the mail"...i blew a sub today and that's my 1st priority, so it maybe in the next friday, but deffinatly sending in a MO. Is there ONLY gonna be 10 made?? or more if more people want one??...if only ten, i'll send the many this friday...thanks

cool, I email him when I get the money...I'm 99.9% sure right now though, just waiting to get the check, should be this week or early next week.

 

Da-Max,

It's not too late; go ahead and send the money to me whenever you get it. Just let me know...

Pearl93max (Blake),

Thanks,
David C.

 

I received two money orders today so that puts the total at six money orders. We're only four short...If Obsidian Ice, Da-Max, Pearl93, and Big Dog send their money, we'll have ten. Keep the MO's coming.

Thanks guys,
David C.

 

sending it friday...getting my sub replacedfor free, so i'll have the money........3 more i guess

 

one more quesion...how do the hood bolt up to the car...stock hinges and shocks?? is it hard to drill holes for pins or will it crack??

 

Bolt on as stock does. Here got to this site http://www.maximadriver.com/ then got to the How2's and look for installing CF Hood

 

thanks man...that helped out expecially with the hood pins, i wanna do that
