That is the max number but we will most likely do better then that.

OK, here is the latest from one of the three companies. I am alittle concerned about the min number requirement of 80. As you can see we most likely can work that down. We still need as many for the initial group by as we can get. Please don't anyone get to wrapped around the axle about cost. The larger our order the better our position to discuss cost.

"We really appreciate your interest in our company carsoption.com. The order
right now of 80 is due to the fact that the larger the quantity, the lower the
price we can sell it at. I'm pretty sure we can work the min. order number
down but that would drive the cost up a bit due to the fact that the mold is
the thing that costs the most. Once a mold has been made, replicating the
pieces are a breeze. Maybe we can do something where we can make 20 cf and 20
fiberglass for you. Let me check with my manufacturer and see if he's willing
to do a smaller min. order. Price wise, I'm more then positive that we can
work out a very resonable price. From past pieces that we've made, prices
shouldn't be too expensive. We have to keep in mind that this piece is just a
spoiler, so we understand that people don't wanna spend too much on a small
piece like this. Please check back with me in about a week. Right now we're
really swampped in preperation for Hot Import Nights in Los Angeles. Thanks
for your patience."

I'm down for a cf piece, NOT painted since my car is painted a different silver. Anyways, Greg you think it's too early to get a head count of who wants what? Maybe I am just a bit too damn excited since I've invisioned a roof spoiler on a solara since day one would look HOT. Excuse my excitement!!!

spoiler painted to match their car.

Thanks for joining the group buy. We will make a statement.
