    "Pre-89 Shine Air-guide" thread =0) NEED 25 COMMITTED BUYERS!

    Think positive. Only 14 more to go. Another option is to have 12 participants at double the price. $250 fiberglass, $400 carbon fiber. A third option is that you guys buy the 89+ airguide and have it modified at your local shop, which will be the most expensive option. (FYI, creating this...

    I had to make 2 attempts to make the Abflug lip group buy go through and it took a long time! Generally, MK4 owners already have good running cars that could afford to make non-essential purchases. MK3 owners on the other hand focus on either getting their cars running or keeping it running.

    I will know the time frame before I take any deposits, but I can't tell you guys how long it will take to produce at this time because i don't know when the the list will have 25 people in it. This air guide project time frame will be affected by the other projects that Shine has going. This...

    The cost would probably be similar to the 89+ air guide. $125 fiberglass, $200 carbon fiber, but that would be subject to change. - Before I start the official group buy list, I have to submit a group buy request, for approval, with Supramania - Before I submit a group buy request, I need to...

    Allow me to put things into perspective. When I first started buying aero parts, before Shine's existence, I would have to buy from a retailer here in the U.S that would order from Japan. I would pay the store in full and wait for the part to be delivered. I remember buying my...

    There's no group buy. The part is now available; you could buy it as an individual.

    Far from it. A total of 8 pre89ers people expressed interest and only 2 people, including you, are on your list. Shine will make this part if it feasible and makes business sense.

    Where's the pre89er love? Will the pig-nosers be the only ones to have this?
