    Carbon Fiber Radiator Cover Update!

    For additional information check this thread:
    http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forum...ad.php?t=13262

    I spoke with Jason today. The cover will be priced at $249.99 plus shipping. He should be sending out email notification to everybody on the list who committed to purchase. He will be requesting $100.00 deposit. After the deposits are paid, the first unit will be made and we will try to get NAVCHAP to go by for a test fit. Then the rest will be produced and we all need to pay the balance due. In order for it to be a GROUP PURCHASE, we need to work together so they can all be paid for and shipped at the same time. Payment can be made by credit card, check, M.O., paypal, but if you use paypal you must pay the 3% service charge. I did not ask, but I suppose the full price could be prepaid instead of the deposit.

    As I understand it, this first production run will be for the number of units ordered by us in this GP, and there will not be any extras made. Future orders will be filled when an adequate number of units are back-ordered to make it worthwhile.

    If anybody who signed up does not get an email from Jason, or if there are any additional members interested, contact him at: jason@dgmotorsports.com

    Never been made yet. Molds will be made after deposits are received. Check the other thread for pics of the Lightning version. They make a very high quality product.

    I'll put a call in to Jason tomorrow.
    I'll probably drop the entire $250 if he thinks it will be in our hands within a month...

    Guy's, don't know where I've been but just came upon this thread. Only missed it for 3 months... Sounds good to me and I'd like to get in on it if it is not too late.

    I am sending an email to Jason tonight and will follow up with a deposit if he gets back to me.

    Thanks,

    Norm

    He WILL reply to you. I assure you, he's top knotch.

    I am still in, and waiting for a phone call regarding details. We only need fifteen folks to get this ball rolling, and those 15 folks need to send a c-note deposit.

    This will be one of those rare upgrades. We will be of the few, the brave, the....oh hell....whatever!
