Nice

After seeing those mock ups I'd definetly switch my vote to stock lenses. If I could afford one now, and was voting. But for all you people who are interested, but poor like me, using the stock lenses does drop the price of the pacakge from like 890, to 500. Which is much more reasonable, and something I might be able to afford before the deadline.

Like to remind everyone it's only a 250.00 buy in and an additional 250.00 when it is completed. You don't have to buy the signal lamps now or even from here. They are just 99 spec FD turn signals and running lights.

ok, here's whee I get a bit upset. . .
Even with an extended deadline, we only have six (6) preorders for the bumpers. This means that those of us that put our money where our mouths are, are going to get screwed by the fact that no kick *** front ends will be made.

This is due to all of you that said "Hell yeah, I'm interested!!" and "Show me that everyone else is getting them first, and I'll jump in. . ." What utter Bulls##t. If the buy doesn't go through, you'll get your money back, so why did you all put off ordering? If you had just stepped up and laid your cash down, this would have worked beautifully. Thanks to each of you that contributed to this deal going down the toilet.

Basically, you're a bunch of posers and talkers. When it comes down to it, you're not much more than words.

Just thought i would add that not only will the bumpers not be made, but new sideskirts, rear bumpers, spoilers, and the dreaded carbon fiber hood will not be made for us. Rotary Extreme set up this buy for us to see if we weren't just talkers, and actually did want nice body parts for our cars. He was gonna change everything for us, a new line up of body kits that have never been seen before. And i have yet to see anyone make a carbon fiber hood. Yet, i see 45,000 people on here saying that they would buy one in a minute. Your ruining your chances to get something so original, and so unique.

Im not pressuring anyone, im just stating a fact, that we will not be having anything made for us if this fails. Why should they spend the money for something that is a lost cause??? I dont see you or anyone else complaining about Mazdaspeed7 always talking about gettin deposits first. It only makes sense! Would you spend your own money on something based on the assumption that some random kid told you he would pay you? Didn't think so. And don't call us richboys just cuz you can't afford one now. I mean ****, i can't even afford one now, my car is in pieces, but I am not letting this offer go through. So take your attitude elsewhere. No need to start fights over nothing.

Unfortunately, as I said above, that's what everyone seems to be doing, and so we probably won't have the pleasure of seeing your name on the list of buyers.

It's not like your money won't be refunded if there aren't enough people, so why not go ahead and put your name on the list? That way, it at least LOOKS like we're trying on our end. . .

Whatever. I just hope that it happens

OK. I just looked at the list on rotaryextreme.com, and the total is now at 7 confirmed pre-orders. A friend of mine is giving me the money to order his no later than Thursday, so that will make 8. All we need is ONE more, and then Supermac will order his to make TEN!!! Hell yeah, we might actually get there!

Hey Chris F. didn't you mention before that you might order a second bumper? If so, then we'll be set.

If it comes down to it. I'll bite the bullet and buy another. Just because I really want this to go through. I will probably just sell it on partstrader when i get it or to the million interested people on the forum that didnt join the list.

Extras

It's my undestanding that Rotary Extreme will be making more of these bumpers once they have the mold, but that they will be more expensive then the group buy price. If anyone bought a groupl buy one, and was selling it later I would definetly be interested, as the closeness of the deadline is my biggest enemy.

Cool I'm buying!

Hey Initial FD tell me where to mail my money order and i'll send it out. Just as long as I don't need to buy the 99 spec lights right now I will buy the bumper. Thats one bad as bumper.

By the way I definetly agree with what inital fd, west tx rx-7 and all the other group buyers. If this group buy doesn't go through then we won't have aweseome looking body kits to show for our RX-7's. All the other body kits out right now look very much like stock and doesn't give people a chance to make thier 7's too unique.

**my 2 cents**

Now thats what im talking about!

Yes, you do not have to buy the 99 lights now, or ever if you dont want to. Are you sending money order or paypal, his paypal address is rotaryextreme@aol.com . Payment of $265.25 will be sent for your deposit. If you are doing a money order, it is $250. Let me know which you are doing, and i will get you his mailing address if needed. Thanks again.

Yes, it will be made!

Looks like we are going to have 8 people by the deadline. It's not too far from the 10 people goal we set so the GTC Style 2nd Gen bumper will be made. First we need a 2nd gen bumper. Chris (InitialD FC) already offered his but I don't know if his offer is still good. Chris, please email me about it. Second, I need to find a 2nd gen down in LA for test fitment. If you live near El Monte and you can let us use your car for 1-2 days for test fitment after the first bumper is made, that will be great. In return, we will give you a discount on the GTC style bumper if you would like to get one now or later. Please email rotaryextreme@aol.com for detail. I would like to thank everyone who helped out and joined the group buy. In the future, I will have more 2nd gen products made such as hood, sideskirts, etc. Thanks again.

Chuck Huang
