May be more interested if so....
Looks like the list is slowly getting there... We can paint flat colors here, but we don't do any pears as you need to blend the pearls to make it look right.

We are located in Baja Mexico (Ensenada) but anyone in the cali area is more than welcome to meet us and check out our shop.. We do have a full paint department here also.

the prepay system is pretty lame. this industry is a gamble - you can't take the risk out of it and put that on the customer. there's obviously interest in the project and if you only need to sell ~10 to fund the research and mold time, I wouldn't worry too much about it.

I wish it was only 10. Our break even point is closer to 25. (Remember we have the cost of our cars as inventory) We stock the car we make parts for to ensure the fitment is right on. That's why we would like to see atleast 5 people commited. Many forums say they will purchase but when the time comes they do not.

I spoke with the owner and we may offer a non-refundable deposit of $99 for 20 people if we can't get people onboard with the current system.

gonna do a photoshop of the rear as well. I like the sides too. Would love to get the entire kit (not a fan of the wing) done for the 350.

Yeah, too many have been ripped off, so we are very careful about how we do business. Not saying that you guys are this way, but you are new to the boards and not in the US. I wish you guys the best of luck and if this product makes it to production, I will be keeping this as an option

Honestly you guys have the interest for the kit, and I know it will sell.

The reason why your other kit is not moving is because it makes the Z look like a Ferrari, and not too many people want their Z to look like a Ferrari.

Cianci,
Does it look like this kit is going to materialize or not?
Want to pull the trigger sooner than later.
Let me know.
