Hi James ,any idea when you would need a deposit mate? Got little bit of engine repair work to do , then road tax this month . Then will be able to free up the funds

Yes indeed - I've been meaning to make another post. The original kit is now here in Derby, ready for the valance to be sent to Dave Slater. However, before I get it to him we need the deposits in to confirm that we're going to go ahead. I'm not sure of the exact timescale as its all a little complicated, but I think we probably talking about needing the dosh within the next two weeks or so - if folks can manage it!

cheers

James

Sounds pukka mate was the deposit £80?

The front valance is all that's being offered at the moment. Since we're about to go, we might as well just collect the full amount right-off....which is £80. I'll post up in the next few days about where to send it. Once all the money is in, and the original kit got to DBS, the work can begin. We'll have to allow about a month from there, as it takes time to do a decent job in fibreglass, and this is being built 'from scratch', not just cast from moulds. Having said that, Dave is a good guy, and I'm sure it'll be worth the wait.

THTBT has (I think) just bought a spoiler from Dave on ebay, so maybe he can comment on it?

cheers!

James

ok guys , ive registered just to make sure you know im available for questions .

It seems fair to pay for it all in one go since ill be incurring bank charges , banking cheques twice etc . ive also paid out on some gel coat for the project , and pending foggy bringing the front cover , can start straight away , im currently making 480 spoilers !!!!

Right then...get posting to say you're ready to pay, and I'll work something out with Dave about what we do about the money, etc!

cheers

James

Ready and awaiting details, all sounds very interesting!
Pete

Damn.....was trying to stall for time I'll speak to Dave about the plan, then get back to you guys. Not long to wait!

cheers

James

Aye, before I spent me loan again

Good ol' student loan

Sounds good 2 me 2

Hi people... Sorry, but I haven't been on here for a month or so, except really briefly the other day - didn't actually read any stuff tho'. Anyway to catch up - James, I would be definitely up for the group buy, BUT as you quite rightly stated, I did purchase a 480 rear spoiler on flea-bay, but it still hasn't arrived and by ebay standards it's been a long wait IMO. As I only give ebay sellers one chance to impress me, I'm kinda thinking about refusing for the time being, especially as I've had no communication from the seller. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news!!

HAPPY (BELATED) NEW YEAR 300 SERIES OWNERS!!

well , whoever you are , you would take on board in the description that delivery would take place in the first couple of weeks of january - that aint over yet - and yes you have had correspondance .

If it makes you feel better , ring me 01522 856045 .

I think for the group buy we will try to establish a timescale here, and I'll keep in contact with Dave regarding how things are going. Hopefully that way the communication can't break down, and no-one gets concerned. Before anyone 'signs on the dotted line', I think we must all be aware that this is a complex and time consuming business, and there may be delays. Having said that, delays are in no-one's interest (not least mine - I want my original kit fitting ASAP!).

THTBT...I'm sure you'll get your spoiler - maybe emails have gone missing (heck, it happens, especially with Hotmail - if either of you are using it). For what it's worth, Dave's been waiting longer for his twin carb manifolds from me However, they get posted tomorrow...

cheers

James

Well, to clarify, the description said this: '...its expected that due to xmas period that delivery may not take place until january' . It has been January now for twelve days, but let's not blow this out of proportion - I'm not that fussed, but just not particularly impressed, that's all! I certainly haven't received any correspondence, either - but then again I haven't e-mailed you yet - so I wasn't expecting any, but if there's some sort of delay it would be nice to know about it. Still, as long as I receive it sometime then I'm not likely to hold any grudges, you know! The sooner the better though...
