Awsome, if you don't mind shoot me a pm with his contact info. I would like to get some pricing etc.

Good to know there's a local place to get them done! The only thing is... I wouldn't tread much in this group buy, as it will really hurt the OP of this group buy.

Maybe start another one? I know you want to wait to see if this one goes through but.. if you are intereseted in starting another one... nothing really stopping you.

Jay started this group buy, so I feel it's not fair to him if I was to start another one. It WOULD effect this one.

Just thought I'd post the info as I originally said I was interested in this group buy.

If two are started, none will happen. I know the quality of GT is top notch. Lets keep this alive, prices are really good.

Yes they are. +1 for that.

If possible, I would like to see pictures of what the carbon fiber looks like in different colours. I was thinking about getting mine in red but was afraid that it might not look right on a red car.

Was this CF Technologies in Hamilton?

Yes

How much did your friend end up paying? I know Ken Pepper got his for $450 from there a while ago.

^^^^ I think this would be better discussed in a pm

If the group buy goes down around January February, then I would be interested in a hood and truck.

But the hood I would like one with the double scoop. I had the plain carbon fiber on one of my older talons. Time for something different.

Does anyone know how good the quality is?

When i got my old talon it came with the hood. And the hood had a few big flaws.

Does anyone have their products installed on their cars? How well does it close on the latch??

Im not undermining this group buy. Just proving that the local price is probably not better than the deal we would obtain through this gb.

I'm probably going to pick up a 2g hood.
Do they make mkiv supra hoods as well?

Well since you asked if I did a GB, the price for a hood would be $380 or less, no shipping. You even get to see it If there are any problems you have a manufacturer to contact right here too. Beat that.

lol, your gonna cause a ruckus in here Reza

Come on Reza... I don't want to have to "lay down the hammer".

Please be nice and start another thread? Pretty please?

Guys, if you are interested, contact him via PM. I know Reza does not mean any disrespect for Jay, and Reza's not the kind of guy who will steal another thread. This group buy is for the CF products from the states.

Sorry Ryan (and Jay), go ahead lay the hammer down if you have to
Hey ask me enough and I'll give an answer
I'll be quiet now.

How big is this list? I want a 2G CF Hood.

I kinda just browsed the thread, so may have missed some things, but how much, roughly, to get that brought down to London, ON? And when do you need the deposit by? If you can get back to me with a rough guestimate of a final price (hood plus estimated shipping), I'd appreciate it.

WHOOOAA!! I go away for a bit to do some Christmas shopping and this is what happens, lol. No worries Reza.

This group buy is going to come together at the end of Jan./early February simply because I'm not going to push a group buy asking for $450-600 at this time in the year. Alot of people have others commitments with their money and that is completely understandable. I started this group buy becuse I was interested in a 2g hatch and I happened to stumble upon GTfabrications, I did some research and found people were pretty happy with their quality, and they diversity of their products. I was drawn to their willingness to do custom parts in carbon, or fiberglass.

Although I would like to see this group buy happen because prices are great, the quality is excellent, and their customer service is top notch...If people decide they want to go with the local guys, thats fine with me. I'm not making any profit from this group buy, so it's no skin off my back. If I have to wait to get a hatch at this price again, then I will have to wait. I just wanted to extend the offer to the members of this site that were looking for a hatch, hood, or fenders so we can all get what we want, at prices that are more then fair, and at a quality that is guaranted to please.

Like I said before, the more people interested in this group buy, the better for all. If anyone wants to go with the local company, remove yourself from the list (if applicable).

Thanks guys.

Jay, if you can, contact GTFab and see if you can't get pictures of hoods/hatches/doors in different colors. I wouldn't mind my hood in a red, since my car is red. I think many people on here would like to see the colors to see if it will match up with their cars.

Yes, I can definitely do that. I'll let you know what happens when I find out. I'll post what they tell me. Thanks guys.

Yes I too am interested in the red. I want to know if it is completely red or black and red weave. I have looked at other sites and seen both of these patterns.

Do u guys have any pictures of the second generation eclipses ?

I am in for A 2g Hood and Hatch, I called up CF tech in Hamilton and they wanted 460 plus taxes for the hood and 700 to COVER my hatch in CF, so I am def in on this group buy.

So, when's this getting going? Have we set a date? When do we have to have the $$$ for you?

I to would like to know. I am not in any rush or anything but want to make sure I am ready with the money. Any rough estimate would be helpful.

Hey, we're well into the new year so I want to start getting things finalized to see if this group buy will stand. I need some committment, so I'd like to start a definite list. Please add your name to the list, and the product(s) you desire. My very first post is detailed and hopefully you can get most of your answers there, if not, feel free to contact me. Like I've said before, I want this to happen by the end of the month, or early Feb. Thanks guys!

1. Jay Pham - 2g carbon hatch

2. Kenrick Miller - 2g carbon hood and hatch (/w glass if possible)

So what happened to all the intrest in this? Are people still intrested in this group buy or is everyone bailing?

BTW Jay if you need help organizing this let me know as I have lots of free time to help out with this. I have been in contact with GT Fab with some question I have had and will be happy to get answers for anyone on here as well.

Yeah, my contact there has emailed me and asked if this group buy is still happening. It seemed I had alot of interest in the early stages, but now, it's been reduced to two people. I'm going to give it another week before I decide to end this buy. I would be willing to extend it until the beginning of Feb. but I won't let it go much past that.

Those who are interested, thank you for your interest in this group buy, I hope this works out because I'd like to get a quailty hatch at a great price. Thanks again.

1. Jay Pham - Hatch
2. Kenrick Miller - Hood/Hatch

Hey, im still interested, but have no moneya ny more (due to car needing some fixes)
But If this does goe on until febuary i will hoepfully have some cash for this..

Like I said, I don't mind extending the group buy until Feb. I just want to make sure the interest is still there to lock in the prices outlined in my original post. Please add your name to this list if you are seious, thanks!

count me in for a hatch as long as shipping is reasonable now that there are only like 3-4 people.

Can you get 1991 Galant Hoods?

Noted...I will look into it. Thanks Chris

sweet!

I contacted GTFab and got some answers for those that asked and are still interested in the group buy

Ryan,
" yes, you will be able to drill holes for the spoiler. There are dimples on the 1G hatch in the OEM locations. The 2G hatch has been made with a smooth surface. You will have to locate the spoiler holes on your own."

Here are some pics of the 1G Hatch was taken by, what appears to be, one of there customers

1G hatch


Close up of dimples


GT Fab Hatch (left) vs VIS Hood (Right) weave pattern


I think the GT Fab weave actually looks better but that could be due to the fact that your comparing a hatch to a hood.

I am assuming the reason for the 2G's not having dimples is due to there being 4 different stock spoilers.

Rob,
Right now we have about 3 people that have confirmed that they are 100% in.

From what I have researched, the quality of there carbon fiber is excellent in both looks and fitment. I have added some links that I have found.

I have not seen these in person but if anyone else has please feel free to comment

Scott,
Right now we have 3 people that have confirmed.
1. Jay Pham - Hatch
2. Kenrick Miller - Hood/Hatch
3. Mike Degli Angeli

There are 14 more people that have shown interest but just waiting for them confirm that they are still in.
1. Colin Shainline
2. Ryan Laliberte
3. Ghislain Goudreau
4. Murtaza Saadat
5. Thomas Wong
6. Brandon Clement (Green weave would be extra)
7. Bashar Khalifeh
8. Steve Whitman
9. Mike Duarte
10. Peter Harry Cortesis
11. Peter Urach
12. Scott Sennema
13. DaveBarlow
14. Chris Esquejo (If they make 1991 Galant hoods)

So if everyone that has shown interest is in then it would be 17 people so far so I don't think we will have a problem getting at least 10 people.

Ryan,
They will be sending us pictures of the different colours as soon as possible.

Ruben,
what kind of 2G Eclipse pictures are you looking for? Isn't that a picture of a 2G Eclipse with a carbon hood as your avatar? Be a bit more specific on what your looking for and I will see what I can do.

Ryan,
The exact date is as to when this is going to happen will have to be determined my Jay. My suggestion would be to give people until the end of the month to confirm what they want to order and to gauge interest. If we have enough interest then I would say to have the 50% deposit by Feb 15. Again these dates are just merely my suggestion.

Daren,
They do not make carbon fiber spark plug covers or hatch covers. The minimum order for small items is 15 units and I don't think we will be able to get that many to commit.

Ryan,
You can buy sheets of carbon fiber for your own personal custom items. They sell sheets up to 40 x 36 in any colour. I will be asking them about prices on different size sheets

Some items can not be made in color carbon due to the dimensions of the part. Please let us know which part you are interested in the color carbon and we will let you know if it is possible.

There you have it folks, the answers to all your questions. Kenrick has taken some time and beaten me to the punch regarding questions.
The group buy is still going, I'm waiting for that list to fill up to at least 10-15 people.
Remember this is not just a 1g-2g group buy. If they make something that your interested in, sign your name on the list and we'll include your item on the pallet.

Lets see some committment here guys. Thanks for the support Kenrick.

What are the prices on 2g carbon trunk

According to the first post in the thread it was $380
