Mark, lets not try to revise my pricing...lets leave that to me

As I've explained *many* a time, your Yahoo/Google/WallStreet exchange rate conversions to *not* apply to such transactions. I have to send money internationally via banks, and thus am forced to go with the exchange rate THEY stipulate. So again, pricing will be in the $200ish range as previously stated.

Oh and feel free to start 2 lists (one for FEED and one for RE-Amemiya). As long as we have say, 5 of each, I think I can try and swing some type of discount.

Thanks,
~Ramy

Sorry, wasn't trying to step on your toes or anything. People kept asking for ballpark figures. I took what I saw elsewhere and said you should be able to beat that price, which you usually do, and you did(if thats $200 shipped, not $200+shipping).

Anyone have any experience with the CF scuff plates? I'd hate for them to get "scuffed" as silly as that sounds. Does the clear coat on them hold up well?

Riz you can always reclear 'em before you put 'em on, and if they scuff (which is their JOB fyi

) you can sand and reclear 'em.

second gen. T-2, I can get a FD CF hatch for you, but this is not the place for individual requests. This is a GB thread. Plz email me w/ any individual questions or request you may have: Info@FDNewbieImports.com

I know man, but it sucks thinking about nice CF getting messed up. I guess what the hell, I'm in for the RE-A one's...LoL. I don't think there will ever be an end...

lol. Make sure you do the same to your wheels. Gives you the same ability to protect them and easily repair them (repair the clearcoat only really) the vast majority of the times, rather than having to repaint the wheels.

Really? I didn't know that was an option for wheels? So, can my bodyshop easily do this for me or should I go to a wheel specialist? I'll be givin' you a holler in a little bit.

Thanks,
Rizwan

Well I'm sure any competent bodyshop can do it; I had it done to the MINT OEM '93 wheels on the '93 R1 I sold prior to selling it. Just be forewarned, clearcoat is NOT cheap

PS: Sound good...I'll be waiting for your call.

Just get some felt tape, apply to the bottom of the door panel, and don't drag your feet when you get in and out and it should look "new" for a long time.

If the Feed plates come in twin weave carbon like their door handle overlays, well then put me down for a set. From the pics on their website, they look like they're the jdm 1x1 weave though. I would like to see some done in silver carbon, the alum mazda ones wrapped in silver carbon with the gold RX-7 logo showing through FTW!
