any more takers?? i'll confirm things with stevie and get this running. i still need to hear from him if hes only going to be making carbon fibre or carban kevlar for us as well ( for those who dont know what carbon kevlar is, its exactly like cf but the weave is coloured and its one of the strongest material known to man, used in bullet proof vests etc). obviously the kevlar would cost a bit.
heres the list at the moment

1. APZ-312: Foot rest; boot release latch; Fan shroud
2. SG : brake light cover
3. Shue : Fan shroud
4. Khun jeng: Fan shroud

...kevlar... i saw that the other day. a kevlar surround being made for a S14. it looked fugly... no offence. IMO the weave is not as balanced as CF thus is looks a bit awkward - mind u, it was in yellow and black as well... but yes it is very hard...

however, everyones different i suppose

your thinking of plain kevlar , carbon kevlar is a hybrid of carbon fibre- fibre glass and kevlar ive got a few pics of the kevlar ones. stevie made them for the uk guys in red and blue. i think they were sold for 50 pounds

standard carbon fibre

blue carbon kevlar

red carbon kevlar

Thanks for the heads up Shue - if ever any of you need a urgent reply catch me on the www.ftooc.org or email me stevieg606@aol.com I do try and touch base here every couple days

Yes I can still do

Â£45 Fan Shroud Carbon Fibre

I think the carbon kevlar looks pretty cool

A pic taken by a customer - for you guys worried about the weave

guys could u update what kind of finish you would like for the parts as well please. i guess there wont be any more interest so we can get this buy closed off quick and get stevie to make the parts. i will get in touch with stevie and find out how much hes going to charge to post these out to me in melb and then i can post them out individually. chris i suppose u could just pick it up from me. as for sg and apz-312 i can send it by post. shudnt cost any more that 15$ by normal post from melbourne onwards.

heres the pricing of the stuff in either finishes, at the moment the price is AUD is just a guesstimate but gives u a pretty close figure of what the price would be
fan shroud carbon fibre 45 gbp about 110$
fan shroud carbon kevlar 50 gbp about 120$
brake light cover & Boot Release Cover carbon fibre 30 gbp about 75$
brake light cover & Boot Release Cover carbon kevlar 35 gbp about 85$

sg - brake light cover -???
apz-312 - fan shroud - ???
shue - fan shroud - normal carbon fibre
khun jeng - - fan shroud - ????[/i]

looks like we are waitin for a bit to get our cf bits. oh and btw stevie is making cf mivec covers too . 120 gbp. thats about 300$. a bit steep for me but if anyone else wants them can get them shipped along with the other bits too

StevieG · Post by **StevieG** » Thu May 18, 2006 5:15 am

hey guys, stevie hasnt been able to find postage costs from the uk to here, he has asked me to collect postage costs once the parts are actually shipped from the uk inorder to avoid over or under charging us. he wants us to pay him the money for the parts via pay pal , there is a paypal fee which i have divided among the 4 of us as 1.4gb pounds. ive done the conversions at todays rate from gbp to aud$ ,the current order stands at
sg - brake light cover - normal carbon fibre -30 gbp + 1.4 paypal fees aud 80$
apz-312 - fan shroud - carbon kevlar (blue) - 50 gbp + 1.4 paypal fees aud 130$
shue - fan shroud - normal carbon fibre - 45 gbp +1.4 paypal fees aud 117$
khun jeng - - fan shroud - normal carbon fibre 45 gbp + 1.4 paypal fees aud 117$

will pm u guys my bank details. if u can get the money sent to me asap would be appreciated so we can get the parts shipped asap. i will collect postage costs from everyone once its sent from the uk.
cheers
shue
