Gauging interest for Prova Eifel front lip GB (98-01RS) part 1

Gauging interest for Prova Eifel front lip GB (98-01RS)
 
My opinion of the best looking lip for the GC8. Not only has the entire kit been wind tunnel tested, but it looks shockingly nice. Personally I've been looking for the lip at a reasonable price for quite some time. Best price I could find is Aprx. $500 before shipping from vividracing.

So i've talked to a company and they are willing to do a GB for the front lips if there is enough interest. They are replicas and will be made of hand laid fiber glass. The cost is dependent on how many people we get, but it will definetely be under $200 b4 shipping.

Here are pics:

If you can keep it under $200/shipped... I would be very interested!:D Under $250/shipped I would still be interested, but not as enthusiatically interested.:lol::D
RSarte 10-29-2002 11:43 AM

Oh....any possibility they could make it with ABS/plastic instead of fiberglass?:alien:

Yeoman, what does it say there??

Anyways, here's an update:

The company is [URL=http://www.h2motorsports.com]H2 Motorsports[/URL].
They post on the toronto club since they used to have a shop there...so maybe that's what your talking about?


ok, & they told me this:

1) There must be a minimum of 5 lips purchased in order for the orders to even be shipped.

2) In order to get the group buy price there must be 10 lips or more purchased.

If 5-9 lips are purchased, the price is [b][color="red"]$170[/color][/b].

If 10+ lips are purchased, the price is [b][color="red"]$120[/color][/b]!!!!

[b]Those prices are of course without shipping.[/b]

There is no difference in the shipping charge for the company if they ship 5 pieces or 15 pieces, the more ppl in a GB, the cheaper the shipping! (These will be coming from HK)
RuCKuS 10-29-2002 07:29 PM

how much are we looking at for shipping?...

jeremy...
dRu888 10-30-2002 04:32 PM

not really sure on that one...but here's a quote from H2 Motorsports when they posted in the toronto club..

[QUOTE]Shipping by sea min order 7 pieces $120 each
14 pcs shipping $60 each[/QUOTE]

that should be on par. hope that helps

have any shots from the side with stock side skirts? I'm worried about how it would line up. I may be interested. 110 or 170 is an awesome deal.

Here check out this thread, there's a RS with OEM sideskirts, V5/V6 spats, aero mudguards and the prova lip...

...personally i was gonna ask H2 if I could buy some replica prova sideskirts too...but using cwest sideskirts are my backup plan =)...followed with just painted my stock skirts. It's $120 btw, not $110 (i wish :p)
2.5racer 10-30-2002 09:11 PM

put me down for one if we can get them for 120+ shipping.

If anyone knows where to get the sideskirts for cheap (replica or not) i want em (i'll just cut to fit).
Imppy 10-31-2002 03:32 AM

put me down if we get it for $120 + $60 Shipping :D

yeah I'm cheap :monkey: I make 7 bucks an hour :lol:

Is this a GOOD fitting replica?

NC2.5RS 10-31-2002 10:55 AM

Im in!!! Keep me notified. I really love the look of that front lip. And I would definately pay 170+shipping for it. though, it would be great if we could get it down to 120 + shipping.
2.5racer 10-31-2002 04:28 PM

so far i see what 5 people .... regardless if the price is 120 or 170 i dont care i want one sooo bad i can feel it in my pants :eek:
when is the official gb going to start cause I want one soon.
dRu888 10-31-2002 10:56 PM

Yes, this GB is looking good guys...looks like we got close to 15 people interested (as long as nobody also posted in rs25.com that they were interested under a diff. SN :))

I'll keep you guys updated..
RuCKuS 10-31-2002 11:16 PM

i'm in...when is the group buy going to start?...hopefully it starts soon...

I had a feeling someone would say that. Heh. :D
dRu888 11-01-2002 08:48 PM

Yeah, you may wanna join this GB because it's gonna happen reaaaaaallll soon. Good price too =).

& on another note, I talked to H2 and while they don't have replica prova sideskirts, but they offered SYMs sideskirts... I dunno, u guys like? I have only a pretty small pic of it, anyone have a better pic or interested in the sideskirts?

Ok, add me on for the Prova lip, i'm still waiting to hear on shipping tho.

Ed
dRu888 11-01-2002 09:34 PM

You have been added ed.

If we get 15 buyers the shipping will be a flat fee of [b][color=red]$60[/color][/b] for people in continental US ;).

So [b][color=red]$180[/color][/b] SHIPPED for this lip if we get 15, guys. :eek:

...and there are 16 people who have shown interest..
NC2.5RS 11-01-2002 09:37 PM

What are we up to now?
2.5racer 11-02-2002 02:03 AM

my take on the syms side skirt is .... well.... better than stock but no where near as nice as the prova.
just my opinion.
I have $180 waiting to leave my bank asap.
btw what price do they want for the syms.
and i'm still wandering if anyone knows of a cheap set of prova sideskirts.
while i'm at it does anyone make a replica zerosports rear bumper?
man i randomely ramble don't I?
au112 11-02-2002 02:11 AM

Quality
 
I am interested as well, but I wonder how good the quality it is.
I understand that it is always "I get what I pay for", but how is the fitment and does installation of this lip will bring us trouble?

Is the shipping fee for Canada gonna be the same?

Possible for Sym rear bumper?

Andy
dRu888 11-02-2002 02:28 AM

Yeah, i wasn't gonna get the SYMs skirts, i was just asking if you guys wanted them. My take is that they look plain from the look of the pics(but some may like tha clean look). If there is enough interest we could do the SYMs rear bumper up in here too...but we would need like 10 and I find that unlikely to happen.

About the quality, I don't work for these people and I have never seen their replica lip before, so I'm as clueless as you guys. However, the company has assured me that there will be a good fitment...aprx. 97%. It IS a replica, and it IS rather inexpensive, so I'm not expecting an exact perfect copy. They promised me pictures of the actual lip soon...
au112 11-02-2002 03:39 AM

Cool~ Are you going to post a new thread for the GB? Can you please PM me if you have the GB up, because I don't want to miss it :D.

How much is it to ship tp canada?

Andy
dRu888 11-02-2002 04:04 AM

Everybody that has expressed interest for the lip I'll e-mail with info once we get the GB actually started.

y do u gotta live in canada??? >:T !! Haha, well give me your regional code or whatever you guys call it so I can calculate how much extra it would cost to send it to ya..eH. :D
2.5racer 11-02-2002 05:46 PM

you may want to pm me cause i don't check my email much.
oh well I'm so happy that this is so close i just wet myself:eek: :D
RuCKuS 11-04-2002 06:10 PM

dRu888 11-07-2002 02:16 AM

PMs have been sent to everyone..since many of you don't have your email activated =P. if i missed anybody let me know.


Turns out H2 Motorsports doesn't have time to set up a group buy so they put it on me now to run it ....since I'm probably just going to do one GB it isn't really an option for me to apply for i-club vendor status because of the price of that. So...I'm going to have to start the GB on RS25.com..

I have nothing but love for I-club so trust me, i'll emphasize how beneficial it would be for them to join the i-club vendor ranks. I really don't want to piss I-club :(, I just want my lip. If this GB goes smoothly I'm sure they will be much more encouraged to become a vendor here.

Thank You

thanks
dRu888 12-17-2002 03:24 PM

we just need a couple more people and we're good to go on the buy...don't be left out! :D
BrysImpreza 01-12-2003 07:05 PM

How did I miss this!?!?

I'm down for one if it's in the $120 range, fiberglass isn't worth much more then that.

dRu888 02-04-2003 12:26 PM

AFS Motorsports can make these in [b][SIZE=4]carbon fiber[/SIZE][/b] if we get 5 people. Cmon now, how can you possibly pass that up???
