You receive the payment?

$350 sucks , you should try again on the $297. I have about 5 people wanting these hoods.

297 is impossible its below cost we payed out of our pocket for 297 to happen and not go back on our word.

Howitt, if you'd just get back to me you'd have 2 in for sure. ;)

You have my email info still, I IM'd you with it last night again. We apparenlty just missed each other. :/

95M3 2dr - 2k2 GTi 1.8T

What is the difference between slotted and OEM for the E36? The GTI wants OEM.

Steves hood didnt fit right, I called vis on it and since he didnt buy it thru me they really didnt want to help out on fixing the problem.

jgardiner - you get my emails

You Guys are going to hate this, Vis made a new production run of hoods that are now a single piece design for the skeleton making them better quality. The Price of a single Group buy hood went to $545 shipped it hurts I know but the quality should be that much better

yea thats too much for a fiberglass cf overlay...

I'm out.. $565 isn't worth it to me right now, but 350+ shipping certainly was. Sorry!
Howitt

Vis lost alot of business over that one but they are claiming it to be a superior hood. Good news a local supplier of mine has close to 300 vis hoods in stock I might be able get some of those

Does this mean the previous hoods were crappy then? :D

YES, but if the new ones fit right then I guess you cant go wrong.

well find out how many of the 300 are for bmws and get some numbers.

Them new prices suckand I really would not spend that after knowing they just sold for $297.
Howitt
03-26-2003, 01:09 PM
297 was below cost how many times do I have to repeat that, we paid out of our pocket to keep our word and make it go thru, I will call and find outmany they have and pricing we can do

I dont care if you paid out of pocket or not ! I was just using it as a example.

Has anyone else tried to find a better deal?????

Yes - out of pocket or not, it's still another 250 bones for the same product, really. I mean, now they're basically guaranteed to fit - but you'd think VIS would refuse to sell 'em 'til they could guarantee a good fit......

I cannot imagine paying 545 for that hood - but if you can get us a good price on one of those 300 hoods that are sitting around, I'm sure people here will jump on it.

Thanks for your effort - GBs are a PITA to handle :)

Hey Howitt, did I miss out? I'd probably need until this weekend to make a decision though..If you have any sort of deal you could work with me, feel free to PM/IM/E-Mail me..

Thanks,
