Carbon Fiber Radiator Cover Update!

I spoke with Jason today. The cover will be priced at $249.99 plus shipping. He should be sending out email notification to everybody on the list who committed to purchase. He will be requesting $100.00 deposit. After the deposits are paid, the first unit will be made and we will try to get NAVCHAP to go by for a test fit. Then the rest will be produced and we all need to pay the balance due. In order for it to be a GROUP PURCHASE, we need to work together so they can all be paid for and shipped at the same time. Payment can be made by credit card, check, M.O., paypal, but if you use paypal you must pay the 3% service charge. I did not ask, but I suppose the full price could be prepaid instead of the deposit.

As I understand it, this first production run will be for the number of units ordered by us in this GP, and there will not be any extras made. Future orders will be filled when an adequate number of units are back-ordered to make it worthwhile.

If anybody who signed up does not get an email from Jason, or if there are any additional members interested, contact him at: jason@dgmotorsports.com

Sounds Great...Jason had E-mailed me @ 1 month ago to see if I was still 'in' for the CF radiator cover. I DEFINITELY AM! :banana:

[klmore]

I sent my deposit this morning.:)

[FordNut]

I called in my deposit too.

[Directedby]

can you post a photo of the final product.

Never been made yet. Molds will be made after deposits are received. Check the other thread for pics of the Lightning version. They make a very high quality product.

[NAVCHAP]

Folks, no problem going back up to O'side! Will work it around my schedule, y'all know what I mean. It has been a privilege to participate, they have a great shop and some nice vehicles. -kjs-

[BruteForce]

I'll be sitting out this round.

[MENINBLK]

I'll put a call in to Jason tomorrow.
I'll probably drop the entire $250 if he thinks it will be in our hands within a month...

Guy's, don't know where I've been but just came upon this thread. Only missed it for 3 months... Sounds good to me and I'd like to get in on it if it is not too late.

I am sending an email to Jason tonight and will follow up with a deposit if he gets back to me.

Thanks,

Norm

He WILL reply to you. I assure you, he's top knotch.

I am still in, and waiting for a phone call regarding details. We only need fifteen folks to get this ball rolling, and those 15 folks need to send a c-note deposit.

This will be one of those rare upgrades. We will be of the few, the brave, the....oh hell....whatever!;)

[Joe Walsh]

Jason tried to call me today but I missed his call...I'll try to catch up with him on Wednesday.

[TAF]

I did get a chance to speak with Jason today...I'm in. So, let's go folks...this will be a nice addition to your engine bay.....

[Haggis]

Ok I hope it is not too late to get in on this. I just sent jason an e-mail with my phone number.

The more we order, the better....maybe even a little lower cost? :dunno:
Gordon, The CF radiator cover would look awesome with all the other CF components that you have on your Kenny Brown engine!

I'm in, Jason called me back an hour later and I gave him the deposit. He said he still need a few more people to reach the mininum number required. But, it still looks like it is a go. :woohoo:

Now I can't wait till it gets here. :up:

[merc]

Just got off the phone with Jason and we are still looking for 6 more members to pony up. :beer:

[Svashtar]

Must have missed his email somehow, but emailed him again just now with my phone number and asked him to call so I can take care of $100 deposit with him.

Glad I found this thread even though it was at the last minute!

Thanks,

Norm

[Joe Walsh]

DONE! Just got off the phone with Jason and left him my credit card for the $100 deposit....

C'mon guys we only need 15 to start production.

AND; because it's Carbon Fiber it will add 12-15 RHP!*

[Svashtar]

Jason was out but I left my CC info for the $100 with his assistant and she said she will get it to him when he returns, so there's one more...!

Tnx,

Norm

I've been so busy, I've overlooked this one item.
I just sent Jason an email.

Add one more to the order !!!

Is there a phone number to get in touch with him? I just sent an e-mail to him.

Just talked to Jason and left him a $100 deposit too.

[CRUZTAKER]

OK, as of today we need 3 more deposits. If you were interested and haven't done so yet....please anny up!

I'm 13th. Only two more needed. I wasn't going to do it but but I figured I may not have another chance to get something special for my "baby".

I was wondering if we could do some other parts as well. I thought the radiator cover would look kinda outta place if it was the only CF part in the engine bay. I know some Marauders have CF intakes from Metco. I was thinking an engine cover would be a nice combo with the radiator cover. Jason was tossing out ideas for a hood, fuse box cover, door sills and the strip along the dash.

What you guys think?

[merc]

Carbon Fiber Hood would be nice :beer:

[Joe Walsh]

Fuse box covers and door sill plates sound good!

I mentioned this in an E-mail to Jason some time ago....I'm definitely interested.

[MENINBLK]

I told Jason, I'd be interested in a hood,
but only if we decided on doing a RAM AIR hood.
I told him about Cervinis.com, and asked him to look at the Stalker hood...
I wouldn't mind the Stalker hood with a RAM AIR box underneath.
At least my K&N AirCharger would snarl through the hood,
instead of just under it... :coolman:

Actually I like the heat extractor hoods but that is a decision for the future. ;)

Hell, I'll take a carbon fiber body! :) Add a couple of stubby wings and we'll be airborne!

I went to an Import show in Atlantic City last summer. They had a complete carbon fiber car. It was sick just to tap it and touch it. It was so incredibly thin skinned. I can't imagine how well that thing would handle and accelerate.

[glassman99]

I left my money with Jason today. I'm # 14. We need one more. This is going to be in demand once the PIONEERS have it!! :banana:

[glassman99]

Jason has received many suggestions on future carbon fiber products. Hopefully this will work out for him. He is going out on a limb with this product due to the limited number of owners. It is up to us, as MM owners.

[BK_GrandMarquis]

We ever get the 15th? :D

[Big Joe P]

OK, I'm in..... NUMBER FIFTEEN !! I just spoke with Jason and he will be contacting everyone on Monday to let you know that this project is a GO...

What's happening with this? I didn't get a call or an email yet. It doesn't look like my card was charged the deposit yet either. :confused:

Jason called me Monday and left a message. I returned his call when I got home from work. Nice lady answered the phone said he was busy and took down my shipping address. Ok, where is it I want mine NOW!! ;)

[merc]

I talked to jason yesterday and gave him my shipping address. He explained that it my take 3-4 weeks before we see the final product. :banana:

Put your pants back on man !!! :mad2:

The deposit was collected to have enough funds to 'make' the product.
Now we have to wait 'patiently' while the covers are being fabricated.
You do want them to fit PERFECTLY, don't you ?? :beatnik:

[BK_GrandMarquis]

Not to be smart or anything, but relax man...chill out...I guess you missed MR. Winky.

To all concerned, the new boss gave us tomorrow off. Our first weekday off in several months other than a Monday holiday, when DG is closed anyway.

Hopefully Jason can try the radiator cover on my car for the fit and function.

Our schedule is so packed that even though it's only 45-60 minutes each way, it's extremely hard to get away from the ship, especially when we are away from the pier, LOL!

Will post more info Friday evening. -kjs-

Went to DG motorsports this afternoon. Jason wanted to take another look at how the cover fits. He showed me the latest work on the cover, and said that they are still about three weeks away from completion. Going back in three weeks to get a fit test, hopefully driving home with it already installed. If the fit works to his satisfaction, the covers will be ready for shipping at that point. DG is a really nice shop and they have some really good people working there. Left Jason an autographed copy of March 2005 Super Rod. He liked it. -kjs-
