Added myself to the list. We emailing them now to put our orders in?

Not yet, mate. I'm waiting to hear back from the factory on the additional discount for 20+ sets, and still working on details for the bulk shipment to the US. Since these would affect final pricing, I want to hold off until everything is set.

I am also traveling for the next two weeks, and won't get much done other than work. :( So the plan is to finalize everything and place orders 3rd week of September.

Anybody happen to know if these are SCCA SM class legal?

I'm pretty sure they are, but for a definitive confirmation, you should e-mail solotech@scca.com, or ask your local tech steward. My track E30 is not well-suited for AX, so I run my street car in Stock, where I don't have to worry about mods. :)

This is from SCCA Solo car classifications for Street Modified (http://cms.scca.com/documents/Solo_R...categories.pdf):

'Carbon fiber hoods, cams, turbo/supercharger kits, etc are welcome, too.'

If carbon fiber hoods are allowed, I don't see why you can't use carbon trim pieces like these.

Off topic, those CF roof skins off the website look pretty awesome.

Thanks Ryan.

I'll be email them soon. But for shipping, is the $35 for each set (35 for fronts and 35 for rears?) or each order? Since I'm maybe buying two sets of each I'm a little confused.

It's $35 for your entire order. The panels are thin, so everything will go in one box for each order. If you order two sets, it's still only $35.

[E30_pilot]

IMPORTANT UPDATE :!:

1) To avoid errors, I'd like each of you to confirm your order specifics directly with the factory -- panel size and thickness, different cutouts, etc. E-mail Mike at sales@performance-trim.com Again, their web site is http://www.performance-trim.com/prod...p?product_id=6 Feel free to copy me at flipper325-at-sbcglobal-dot-net (just remove the dashes).

2) When we are ready to pull the triger, you'll place your order directly with the factory. DON'T DO IT YET! Because of the discount, we won't place orders via their website. Instead, I suggest you you do it by e-mail, following up on Step 1 above.

3) The factory accepts PayPal, and you'll make a payment directly to them. This will be cleaner than making a payment to me, and then forwarding it to the factory, with another PayPal fee.

4) There are two ways to handle US shipments:

• Directly from the factory -- $65. If you prefer this option, then you'll just add the shipping cost to your parts total, and make one payment to the factory. The shipping address entered in PayPal will be your own.

• Through me -- $35. These will be shipped in bulk to me, and I'll then individually send them out. It will take a little longer to get them, and a bit more hassle, but you can't get something for nothing. ;)

You'll make one PayPal payment to the factory just for parts, and a second $35 payment to me for shipping. NOTE: In the factory PayPal payment, you will have to have MY shipping address, not yours! They require it to comply with PayPal resolution rules, in case there is a shipping issue.

5) For those of you outside the US joining this GB, you'll have your parts shipped direct.
