scottsoulby Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Hi guys, this is the list from the old group buy, seemed a waste to forget about it, one trader messed up and it's not very good that you guys miss out because of it, so I'll take it over, not 100% sure how much they will be but I'll try get as close the original price as I can even though it was silly cheap, I'm looking at sending my cover in for moulding pretty sharpish. 2.

scottsoulby Posted October 14, 2009 Author Share Posted October 14, 2009 Hi guys, good news; I've put the engine cover in for moulding today, so we should have the first one completed in a couple of weeks time, bad news; the tech carbon unbelieveably low price cannot be matched, however I'm not too far off, I might be able to push these out at £80 + delivery, compared to techs £65 and that's me pretty much making enough to recover my mould price and enough for a few beers if people still wish to add there name to the list, go ahead, and the same goes to the people who decide they don't want to purchase this is the list at the moment: 2.

I could be wrong though....i probably am! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkie34 Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 They do look the same but more expensive 149 euro at todays rate works out at £138.96.Thats quite a big difference,Scotts are almost £60 cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsoulby Posted October 14, 2009 Author Share Posted October 14, 2009 Yeah they are quite expensive, but then again I'm doing mine cheaper than normal mainly so you his don't loose back due to bad traders, I'll have to put up the price a bit once this group buy is over so get in on this one, also as usually the carbon will be 1mm twill so will suit the carbon brake/battery covers and surrounds I sell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 seen scotts stuff and its very good quality, great fit etc, compared it to the cheaper stuff i go toff ebay, and its a marked improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsoulby Posted October 14, 2009 Author Share Posted October 14, 2009 Cheers buddy, patrick who's making the plenum has just been round to my house with some good news so I'll update the thread soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan4 Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Scott is is still 80+P&P if 20 people are in? I thought the tech price was 55....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N!ck-z Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Just seen this, I took my name off on the other thread mate. Plus I need a little more money to pay for a new key now too! Hope it's not too much of a nuisance to any one. Just for future reference will the engine cover weave match the plenum Scott? 2. Bladesgrant 3. Vik54 4. JT1703 6. Tonser 7. shieldsie 8. Spaceman 9.

scottsoulby Posted October 14, 2009 Author Share Posted October 14, 2009 Hi yes it will still be 80+pp no matter what the numbers, and I'm barely making Anything On that, The silly low prices was tech carbons way of drawing you in and paying for things that never existed then doing a runner, I'm hoping they will both use 1mm twill, it's a good question so I'll find out, I'm using 2 different companies so I'll try get that sorted No problem Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan4 Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Whats happening with this now as Carbon Coops group buy is back on again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsoulby Posted October 18, 2009 Author Share Posted October 18, 2009 Ay up, yeah I'm still making these, because the engine covers will suit the carbon batt/brake surrounds and covers and also the carbon plenum I make, all my products use a 1mm twill where as most other places use 2mm, personally I think the 1mm looks alot better and is widely used in japan, Also I've paid extra for better resin, because it's an engine cover it will obviously get hot, some others could bend or warp under the heat, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carbon Coops Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Hi just an update from me ref this GB and mine from before. As i now have new confirmed suppliers without the middle man (tech carbon) i will not be taking payment until i have the items in my possesion then once i have inspected them i will request payment and ship the items out, this will eliminate the troubles we had with jays bonnet, which i fully refunded! there is a 2 week turn around on these as they are made to order. Not tryin to step on anyones toes but i would still like to honour and continue the original GB which i have been able to drop the price on! Not sure how far along you are with the moulding so not sure if its too late? Let me know either way cheers coops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as the quality is equal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
