Will you be getting any of the Mint Blue wings that mount about halfway down the hatch on the P5? If so, I'd be really interested. What's Mint Blue's website, so I can check out their grills, etc.

Umm this might be a stupid question so forgive, but do these pieces come painted? Cause I think I might like the front lip thingy, not sure yet though.

They dont come painted. . .On a side note, has anyone removed the stock wing? I thought i saw a p5 without it and there were visible holes.

When we spoke with them they were currently out of stock on the other parts. All that I can get is what I've listed.

thanks, rishie

Thought I would put this out there for those who haven't seen but this company has about 6 or so products made from real carbon fiber.

Main reason i thought of this was because of the price of the eye lids you listed. This site has c/f eyelids for only 60 bucks.

they also have a c/f roll cage, hood with functional ram air, sideskirts, downforcers to name a few.

Not trying to take any business from you and haven't looked at the products you list so am not sure if your quality is better than this company to compensate for such a high price for a part that isn't even painted.

What ever happened to the auto exe replicas you were having made Rishie? If and when you do get replicas made are the lips going to be urethane or fiberglass?

We're working on it. But I've put a hold on that project as so many other companies are following suit. I figured we would bring in the TRUE JDM products rather than the knockoffs.

My funds are so tight right now that I can't afford to take the risk.

We are well aware of dg as several of the others are as well. They do not have eyelids that look like these. These are the best looking ones in my opinion as they line the complete housing, not just a portion.

Thanks, Rishie

BTW, I have limited quantities as you can tell so I'm not too worried if others want to go with the Replica stuff.

IT's like getting Konig Rated R's instead of Volk TE37's. You get what you pay for and there's a bit of prestige behind getting parts no one else can easily come by.

Had the chance to check out the sites for the parts you listed and i do agree those 'lids look way better. Also didn't know these were true jdm parts just thought these companies were aftemarket like all the others.

A few questions:

Do the lids have like a lip or something that attaches them somewhere under the hood or do they stick on to the headlights directly with 3m tape or something. If it is with tape or something is it very hard to remove without damage to the lights if you ever wanted to take them off?

Also is the pic on the mint blue site of the type 1 grill? If not, do you have a pic that you could show of it? When I looked at the site all i could see were pctures that had "type 2" printed on them and the others didn't specify. Maybe I was seeing it wrong or maybe there was another page I didn't look at.

Thanks

Rishie, is there any chance of you obtaining the "MINT BLUE" rear spoiler? By this I refer to the rear body section in the back of the car (not the wing assembly).

Later, Speedbump

PS. The B & M works AWESOME........thanks.
