the bonnet looks the nuts, colud see myself drooling all over e30 with all the above cf on it, if it were mine dont think i'd drive it lol.... for the value as well as the weight loss, seems a very worthwhile mod, esppecially if your e30 is in need of some body tlc, plus the added bonus of not needing to get parts painted afterwards at another cost....

Thanks bene30jane,
I know what you mean about the bonnets !! I can't wait to fit mine too !! its been sitting in a box for months...not long to go now.
Incidentally the bonnets are very durable in terms of resisting stone chips... Demlot was very impressed with his... and still looks great after hacking it to germany, then round the ring a bit and home for tea an medals
When you want one let me know, I have 3 available at the moment for £550 or if you want the Mtech 2 rear spoiler which normally retails at £329 and the bonnet together I am doing it for £680 !!!! but thats the next group buy..........

Very hard to decide... especially when you actually have the carbon in your hand... you'll kind of want to show it off I think...it's the same with bumpers....
I know I should paint them...but when I do eventually get them I'll be tempted to leave them natural....then my m3 is macau blue

i think to leave it natural cf, would look the nuts against delpin grey, possibly the best colour car too, maybe because mine is too

Back on topic....
Whats the special rate for the spoiler if I've allready bought a bonnet? Can Iget a discount if I buy a CF boot at the same time too?
Probably in for sunroof panel and full tech 2 kit early next year too.

Hi Guys,
I am putting the group buys together now, So should be done late tonight or in the morning...
Thanks for all your comments...... I will try and sort out something that hopefully will help everyone get what they want....!!!!
I have the opportunity to add an order onto a shipment for hopefully a christmas delivery.... but it does mean that deposits will have to be paid before the end of next week....it's something to consider but depends on where people are financially.
Cheers

The cf e30 boot would be £450 but I do not have the mould for it so we need another 9 people to go...
I will post the G/B details later tonight or in the morning,
Getting another 9 people should not be a problem I think....

I know what you mean ! I had that with the last group buy and it was a nightmare, I ended up having to front it financially myself,
Still live and learn. I am prepared to stick things out and be patient and wait for those who are serious about buying into a group buy.
I would appreciate only people who are in a position to buy because I don't want to let others down. I fronted it once but will not do it again.
What I offer is a genuine opportunity to buy top quality CF that people can afford.... and thats it.
its basic economics, no greedy middle man, no fancy advertising, no overhead costs, etc..etc..
still I think the bonnet speaks for itself... It does look amazing in the pics !!!
Wait to you see a boot lid !!!!
Cheers

No problemo ! I'll put you down for one. Incidentally why don't you want a bonnet too ? Cf Tech2 roof spoiler and bonnet would be tough !!!! actually vented Cf bonnet is what you need !!! I'd be up for that

Hi Guys,
Here are the details of the group buy........
Firstly here are the prices for the M-tech body Kit
Here are the prices...........................Front Bumper 2 piece £450
Rear Bumper £430
Rear Spoiler 2 piece(mtech2) £300
Door Moulds/pair and side skirts incoporating front and rear mould panels £450
So the grand total £1630 RRP
If I can get 5 orders for these kits I can reduce the price by 25%
That would bring the price down to....£1220 !!! for the lot !!!
I would require a deposit of £250 per kit and it would have to be payable by the 30th of september to get it in for Christmas.
If there are things you wish to add or change to this body kit combination please let me know what you want and will taylor your order..
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Secondly
The E30 bonnet and M-tech spoiler cf offer....
Actual RRP is £550 for the bonnet and £329 ! for the spoiler...
This is discounted to...£680 the pair !! A 25% deposit required
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Thirdly
The Sun roof panel....
This is a direct replacement panel in carbon fibre and means that the sun roof retains its functionality 100%
I had quoted £150 but unfortunately I have underquoted for this, so its going to be £190 guys, sorry but can't get it any cheaper...
Still not bad price though
10 people are needed to order this as a mould will have to be produced
So......£190 and a 25% deposit
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.
Fourthly
The Mtech2 cf e30 touring roof spoiler...!
Need 10 for this one and the part to make the mould so if anyone has a PERFECT example to loan please PM me and I can make it worth your while.
The retail price is £329, and this is because we have to cover the cost of making the mould.
I have however done my very best to reduce this to £270 !!!! not bad eh
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.
Finally
I have had some interest in those of you wanting boot lids and front wings in cf.......
Very straight forward again, just need 10 for either and it can be done.....
boot lids normally retail at £550 but I can do these for £450 !!!!!
Again would need 10 to make it !!! the front wings will be £450 a pair !!!

I hope this accommodates most people.....Volume of the shipment is quite crucial in keeping the prices at a sensible level ! so if there is enough interest there should be the volume of orders to maintain these prices.
As soon as we have enough people I will give details of payments of deposits !!!!
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any Ideas or requirements

Me too, I used to have an Alpina B10 Bi Turbo !! Now that would be a great car to mod with CF !! I always had trouble with damage to the front valance, it's like Alpina made them out of the thinest glass fibre they could get there hands on....

march109- like i said, i know theres no moulds, but i thought there might be other companies out there that might have pictures of cf bits they have for sale, which obviously the guys who are doing this group buy must have done loads of research to find out if there are any available elsewhere before deciding to make there own, as the others may not have been as good quality as demlots/fuzetamark's.
fuzetamark- hi, yeah ive got one your bonnets, just need collecting, i know how these are excellent quality compared to some others ive seen, and not just e30 ones.
i know its hard, but for me i would like to see something before i commit or say im interested, i dont like to waste people/s and my time.

What style of vent did you have in mind?fuzetamark wrote: actually vented Cf bonnet is what you need !!! I'd be up for that
I'm looking for M3GTR style on there own but would consider complete C/F bonnet if they were incorporated
Something like this
http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgur ... 9%26sa%3DN
Obviously the centre section would be all one peice with the 2 outer sections would be seperate parts (if made individually)
Can you supply these as a 3 pc setup to bond into my existing bonnet??
