George is offering up a group buy on his reproduction Euro Tail lenses. Prices are as follows:
100 sets sold $130.00 200 sets sold $90.00 What this poll is designed to do is give us a somewhat accurate count of sets that will be sold. This is my first time to set up a poll so if my choices don't let you add what you want feel free to post. Hopefully we can reach the 200 mark and get this incredible price of $90.00 a set. I doubt you will ever see them that cheap again. If I'm not mistaken these same lenses normally sell for a little over 200.00 a set so even at $130.00 it is still an absolute bargin. George came through for us on the flare group buy and we came through for him. Let's see if we can repeat on these lenses and inspire George and AA to continue to offer us chances at quality parts at bargin prices. Thanks, Shoe UPDATE AUG 24, 2010 QUOTE Okay, the group buy has begun!!! For all of those who are in for one set let's get this rolling. Price is $130.00 plus 10.50 for shipping for a total of $140.50 Please make all checks to Automobile Atlanta and send them to me with a good shipping address and contact phone number. Please mail to: Donald Russell 1650 Raymore Rd. Memphis, Tn 38117 Once the first 50 payments are received George will have the production started. Please contact me with any questions or concerns. |

Well with only 79 votes and several of those only if we reach 200 set price, it isn't looking real good right now. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Any idea what kind of time we'd be looking at on this? Talked to George today and was informed that all the tooling and such has already been done and production could begin immediately. I can't believe more people aren't jumping on this. Normal price for these is 125.00 for the left and 135.00 for the right if bought individually and 200.00 if bought as aset. Therefore, even if we only reach 100, the price is a bargin and at 200 sets the 90.00 is worth buying 2 or 3 sets just to have on hand because you ALL know you are going to buy 2 or 3 or 4 or probably even 5 more of these cars due to your addiction. Come on folks, step up and let's make this happen. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) Shoe |

Normal price for these is 125.00 for the left and 135.00 for the right if bought individually ... any idea why the right side is $ 10.00 higher than the other ????? or is this just a typo ... Aren't the wires on the right one longer cuz the harness runs down the left side of the trunk? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) That could be why. |

Word to the wise. Buy these, but take the darned Euro lenses off BEFORE you track the car.
It's a good thing that a 180 skipping over the gravel and into the tire wall won't cost as much when it cracks a US version lens on the LEFT side. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) It's a far-gooder thing that it teaches one the wisdom of getting back on the throttle sooner in a really fast turn. ... not that it ever happened to me.
