Dear Mikey at 914Rubber,
At this moment I am only speaking for myself, but there might very well be other 914World members who are in the same boat and agree with the following proposal: Many of us with split, tattered, or otherwise unbecoming Rear Targa Pads have been patiently waiting for the "correct finish" 914Rubber version to be available. In the interim you have made available the AA version. For those of us who truly want the "correct" version but are sort of in limbo as we wait for their availability, would you consider a program whereby if we buy an AA version from you, you would then offer a reasonable trade-in/purchase price when the correct version is ready for market? This would give members a chance to spruce up their cars in the near term knowing that part of their initial investment in an AA version will go toward a correct version eventually. Regardless of how you respond to this idea, I am extremely grateful for the products you make available and wish you continued success. Ansbacher Tampa Bay Florida '74 914 2.0L |

Are hole plugs offered with matching texture?
They seem close enough. 100% better than an old tattered piece. Future return for some sort of credit? Then the vendors are stuck with used, not quite right units while trying to recoup their tooling, manufacturing and keeping the doors open costs. They would have to be discounted at a pretty steep rate. Don't know about OR or GA, but in WA there would be a quarterly tax on the used inventory sitting on shelves. No good. |
