Speedster590 are the turbo ears LMCorse? I understand the LM ones are for some reason slightly too small? Did you get the door cards from LM?

Cheers


Yes. I don't like them very much. They are smaller then standard turbo ears...yours are better!

The door cards, handle inserts and the side sills are from c12carbonworks.com

Front tunnel, gear surround, turbo ears and the dash inserts are from LM


Does he speak English? Would he mind me emailing him?


I think so! Send him an email or if you want I can call him for you.

And what about the production of your turbo ears? I want a pair!


I'm just fixing up the molds at the moment but should be able to get some ready in a couple of weeks if thats ok for you?


Sure! that's ok!

Have you thought about asking Ultimate Carbon (aka ScottyBob on here) whether they can do any group buy prices? They do the centre consoles (rhd and lhd) and dash plates etc. So you won't need to modify them?

I've enquired about getting some supply but i think they are pretty busy with none vx stuff. LMcorse stuff is very very good for the money as well. Similar items from reverie would be twice the price. Damn shame they don't do some of the RHD stuff though!

Are we talking about the cutout for the center tunnel?

So are they going to supply it without a cutout and I'll do it myself?

It will be LHD, so you will have to modify it to be RHD.

That's what I'm getting at, yes :) Is the cutout part of the molding in which case it's gonna be a bodge to modify to RHD, or is it something that is cut out once it comes out of the mold in which case they can not cut it and I'll make it fit right. Sorry Gigo, I'm being a bit pedantic but if I'm spending the money I want it to be right :D

It will be a LHD mould, so the it will be cut already. It is my fault for not realising that they didn't do the RHD versions. I assumed that they did, I was wrong.

One point I,d like to clear up in advance. Having been on the rough end of a group buy before for the front splitters that where made abroad and took 1 year after we,d paid for them to turn up. I don,t want to be on the receiving end of such a situation again so before parting with cash I,d like to know when we should expect delivery (realistically) and at what point if any do we get a refund should things fail to materialise as promised.

That's fair enough, I don't blaim you. One would say by the end of october (at the latest) all would of been received by you, that's assuming its all been paid for by the people on the list.

If there is a problem I'll keep you up to date.

I will hopefully PM everyone this weekend with all the details needed for payment etc...

It seems only fair that you should reward your efforts with some shiny carbon fibre!

I ordered some test bits just prior to this GB going up and got them in 7 days. Not saying the GB stuff will be the same timescale due to the multiple items been produced but LMCorse are a "proper" company with impressive facilities!
