    Since it fills in the gap's. I just bought a set, so it would make a better look up front there since i got those Kamei fender splitters on my car too.

        Yeah, my paint is flaked slightly in the seam and it looks like crap (to me at least) so I got them to fill it in. Should look nice I think.

          Thanks to all that ordered a set.

          They will ship the day after they come in. I'm tossing in a surprise for all the R3V customers.

          If you miss out this time I am negotiating for another order but the price may go up a bit.
          The company that makes this stuff for us is huge and they aren't to thrilled with small runs of custom materials (specific formulation of the base material) and they have threatened to double the cost to us unless we order 100+ runs at a time.
          It's a bitch but they are the only USA maker...
          So I'm stuck because I won't buy from shit from Malaysia, China, Taiwan etc manufacturers.

                I love my EVO hood seals on my last E30, I've been putting off ordering some for my new car. I will probably just order them from the dealer since I get the parts at cost.

                    Shipping Tomorrow or Monday

                    Sent all of the stuff out to be shipped this afternoon. They will be going USPS Priority mail.

                    I tossed in a small something extra for all the R3V orders.

                        I'm still confused. What is the benefit to thse, besides the fuh-raze factor?

                            The question being...Should we continue to offer these?


                            The cost to have these produced has gone through the roof (I guess like everthing else) and It has come to the point where I don't think we can offer them on the general market.


                            The least we can sell them for (without loosing money) is now is $38.

                            We have it made in small runs of specilally formulated EDPM in order to suit the conditions IE heat, UV, oil resistance etc. the reason being was that the OE product would harden and cause hood closing issues and also the rubber would degenerate rapidly.

                              I'd make a thread in General Discussion like you did with your X-Brace. That way more people will see it, so you know weather or not to make these anymore.

                              Edit: Nevermind. I just saw your thread on them in the Group Buy section.

                                2 Kits W/ Minor Blemish

                                I have 2 seal sets with minor defects (very minor looks like they were rejected only because the glue backing strips were loose at the end)

                                PayPal $32 with free shipping in the lower 48.

                                PM me.

                                ONE LEFT
