Would anyone be interested in a FRP Amuse hood?

CarbonSignal · 07-08-2013, 12:34 AM

Ok here it is we posted on or FB page thought share here as well, in painting will have final shoot pictures in a week.

So after our previous version we will have these V2 vents for people to do it them selves or we can do it here as well as we did for few.

Let us know what you think

I am liking it, will wait for final shots to see.
Any idea on possibly pricing for the inserts?

I would love one- but with Amuse taking 3 months to make-to-order this stuff is not only impractical, its unacceptable. As a mfgr you get paid to take risks by providing whiz-bang products...dont do that, take 3 months, get your money up-front, and someone will fill the gap more deserving of the business. jus sayin' I'm all ears CarbonSignal

It's the shipping times. They are in Dubai... Unless you plan on overnighting the parts on a plane and spending the thousands it costs, it's going on a boat. The prices for their stuff is fairly reasonable too. I'm not flaming, but just justifying the up to 3 month wait periods. Try waiting for parts from Japan... I'm sure Simota1 can tell you how long he waited for his hood and catch cans.

Porsche prices are not even that much.... I could do an entire body kit, painted, for less than that. There's no cost to quality value in that unless you have unlimited funds. And if you did, you sure as hell would not be in a Z.

Sure man let me know, will be available soon to order.

Pricing haven't decided on, just to point few things, these need a bit of bodywork if anyone is looking to replicate Amuse hood. The vents we using and offer are not 100% copied it but just improved version of our previous design in terms of vent design and bodylines of the hood and yes more like current amuse hood.

I totally agree its impractical and unacceptable, but you are missing the point we don't manufacture Amuse kits but are selling on their behalf infact the first one to do so, since that time which is now two years there is always a waiting period of 6-8 weeks. What we have heard single amuse kit take a week to prepare and I feel with so much demand timeline i is a bit harsh but still ok.

People dont see when paying shipping and the timeline when ordering from Japan but for us every single excuse comes up

. We stand behind our quality and time line is reasonable if we shipping direct to customers
