^^^ I see you love those 4Gs .. not a fan of them really.

Well I am pretty sure , one day I will have to let go 2 at least if not all of my 4 SCs when the time comes my interest shifts to another car. Only time will tell. It has been that way in the past 30 years ... I get crazy on a particular model of cars then the next day I simply want another model of cars.

Looks like you are way ahead of the projected number of orders on the front bumper. You see now why I have been hounding you on the sides and rear bumper in poly - urethane. A lowered car needs stronger bumpers or it is prone to damage .

That front bumper will not look good without them .

FRP sides and rear are not a horrible option. I keep breaking fronts, but have never come close to damaging my Shine sides and rear.

That said, I want and WILL buy the entire kit if you make it and so will tons of others.

^^^ I hate to see that test done on a real A/C and Shine Body Kit .

Thanks for letting us know that you have plans of doing the Sides and Rears in Poly-Urethane . I can wait so I don't have to settle with a fiberglass sides and rears . You definitely can sign me in for two.

Your body kit in poly-urethane is just a no brainer for people who want to enhance the look of their SC.

Awesome. This might just give me a reason to get my SC running again.

These are pics of my fiberglass bumper already broken, 2 days out of the body shop and in next picture 6 weeks out of the body shop. It;s even worse now.
It was heartbreaking..... A single, unpainted speed bump on a dark street and BAM! It was broken.
Never again though..

Its hard to see but it was well cracked by the second day. The bottom bar in two places and between the drivers bright light and grill.

One last plug since to day is the last day.

You sure you don't want to place a deposit for the second one Anthony?

If I may suggest , make 3 or 5 extra ones . Surely they will eventually sell .

You never know even before you start shipping those from the group buy , someone will try to get in.

In fact I am seriously considering getting one more, just not decided for now ! That will save me am sure some more if all the 3 are being shipped to one place , right ?

Bumping this thread as final payments have been requested and product should begin shipping.

I recommend we keep this thread updated with feedback, opinions and pictures instead of the other thread in the Vendor area......
