NEW PRICE $650 SHIPPED

i have arrangements to have 20 carbon fiber trunks made. these will be made by Seibon Carbon, so they will be extremely good quality. we need to get a minimum of 20 people paid for it to happen. i am sending my extra trunk lid to them to have them make the mold for them. i would like to get this all done by the Convention this year in Savannah.

i am good friends with the owner of Zerolift Autolab, a performance shop here in Cincinnati. Once the hoods are made, they will be boxed for shipping by Seibon, and then sent to Zerolift. they will then be shipped out from there.

i know i have seen many people including myself looking for trunks for the b13, well this is our chance. i want to be sure everyone knows again that these are being made by Seibon Carbon themselves. the quality and fitment will be nothing but perfect.

the trunks should weigh between 12-15 pounds...

the price will $650 plus shipping. shipping will vary from $40 to no more than $80. hawaii, alaska, and international will be more of course. but remember, you get what you pay for, and you will not be dissapointed one bit.

you should receive them 6-8 weeks after the final payment is made...

i know it seems short but i would really like to keep this close this February 6th... that will allow them to most likely be delivered in time for the Convention.

if this goes well, i have talked to them about extremely good quality hoods, fenders, sunroof inserts, and possibly other parts that people are interested in. and if this goes well, i will start round 2 as soon as this one ends.

post up with any questions or interests...

i would prefer if people can paypal the money as soon as they confirm, only so that as soon as the last person confirms, they can start being made. you can however pay on the final day if you would prefer. and of course, if people pay and this is not a success, you will receive your full refund instantly. thanks and lets make this a success!!!!

When I first saw this thread I was so excited, but once i seen the price I was blown away. 700 is very steep man. I mean 450 is the norm for something like this. Sorry to tell you , but I can guarantee that you will not get 20 people to come up with 700 for a trunk. That price is just ridiculous!

Goodluck anyway and if the price comes down I will be in.

I saw prices in the $500 range fro CA, is that the best price they can do? Even $550-600 shipped would be better than $700.

Thats what I am saying. I mean if 20 guys buy one 700 shipped is just to much.

Seibon is dope... but $650+ shipping w/ 20 ppl?? And I've have seen shipping prices for hoods be up around 150 bucks...

I aint gonna lie though if i had it i would drop 800 for one of these, I've wanted one for a loooong loooong time.

GL with it bro.

I'd be down for one, but definitely under 600 shipped. closer to 500 shipped like jonwepa said.

are we talking about one with holes for inner tails or just a "E" model basic trunk

I'm interested, but like everyone else I think $700+ is a little steep. Either way GL.

these are business people show them you have a list of 20 willing buyers with at least $500 to $550 no more than $600 shipped and you might can pull this off. i dont see them turning down 20 people paying at least 500 bucks. that's 10 grand!

thats my idea... i agree that the price is steep... but im hoping that once they see the interest, they will be more tham willing to drop the price... and these are going to be the se-r trunk lid with holes for the inner tails... they WILL NOT have holes for the factory spoiler... keep the interest coming as it will help to bring the pricng down!

I have been dieing to get a carbon trunk for my classic. I would be interested but price depending. I have friends of mine who got their trunks and hoods combined for a couple more bucks than what is offered. If the price goes down, I will be down. I think I know of a couple people who may be interested as well.

lol at everyone here. like everyone said... we are in a recession even IF the price drops to 500.. you really think people would still pay that.. i will watch this thread as it fails. not to burst your bubble but not many people can come up with scratch like that from my experience here on the forums... and thats like 5 + years...

Will I be able to use the stock latch or will it require hood pins?
Will I be able to use the stock SE-R lites?
Are the holes there for the inside trunk stops?
Will it have the hole for the trunk key?
Rain seal groove?
What color will the CB be?
How soon will the CB sunroof insert be available?
Does this company have a website?
Are they a vendor for our site?

Im interested.
