INGS or Sanai Front Ends?

So rotaryextreme mentioned that he's running a group buy on the INGS front end, which is supposed to be urethane!

https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...27#post1387927

And it looks pretty good to me. But then I saw this Sanai front end:

http://www.rxecret7.com/sanfronbum93.html

which actually looks closer to what I want.

Anyone have any firsthand experience with either front end? Any chance that the Sanai is also urethane?

Rotaryextreme, can you give us details on the INGS group buy?

Why keep it a secret dude!?

If you know something, spill it. This could impact alot of folks' purchasing decisions....

That's two. How about the other one or two you were trying to remember?

Uh, it's actually not urethane.

Sorry guys. I made a mistake. It's actually not urethane. It's a special kind of fiberglass product using a special kind of resin that makes the final products flexible.

ING+1 and C West are the only 2 companies making parts using the new resin for the FD.

I took 200+ photos at the Auto Salon and I will post them over the weekend.

Chuck

Say Chuck:
Is this "Hybrid Fiberglass" with the flexible resin something you can get ahold of and/or use for your replica parts cost-effectively?!
