7g Carbon Fiber Trunk

[Da_Gal]

The owner of Raceonusa.com says he will make CF trunks for us . He needs 10 ppl(here we go again) and they will be 399 each

[Jeffylou87]

That's freakin cheap if thats the shipped price..

[kolio]

do we have a deadline? and is that price shipped?

[Da_Gal]

He didnt say, but it my not be. i will make sure tomorrow

[evil-G-nius]

also what years? Two different taillight sets...dont forget that

[Da_Gal]

oh yea. ill check on that 2

[kolio]

just get a 97-98. they better anyway

[Shadow19]

Highrev will do them for 450 shipped and we might get away with 12 people... Honestly if i get a trunk it will be from those guys.

[peanotation]

damn, that is really cheap....

[bmore303]

Yeah, now it just depends on what year trunk they decide on using.

[Da_Gal]

he said it will be for 97-98 g, $399 for the trunk $199 for shippin. u can also pick it up or use your own shipper, but you will have to pay $25 for them to box it up. so if u know someone that works for a shipper, try to get a discount. need 10ppl. He can start in a few weeks


This is the one they made for the Z3 OEM

im interested but im not oem anymore so if they will need my trunk to make a mold let me know.

[Shadow19]

Ok.. These guys want more than 600 bucks for the trunk.... HigRev wants 450 shipped... Get 12 people on the list for the 97-98trunk and i will talk to Kamil to see what he can do for us. He told me he really wants to make us 7g guys something because i originally talked them into coming to TGC for the 7g but it turns out the 8g guys had more interest. So no offence Da_Gal but i say 450 is the better offer ;-)

[Da_Gal]

Hey its cool with me, I got da Fo Fitty Rite Now Playa

[Shadow19]

Me too. All we need is 12 people and then im SURE they will hook us up

[Goku]

........... Damnit

I want one

[DOHCstunr]

can't do it.

[bmore303]

97-98...no go for me.

[Bezzle]

I'm a '96er so I'm out too.
I aint ditching tails for it.

[hk20000]

can someone explain the diff between 94-96 and 97-98? I have a 93 VR4 so it's all jibberish to me....

USDM 94-96 Galants had a 3 piece tailight assembly LH and RH tailight assembly on the rear quarters and a center tailight assembly the whole width of the trunk width.

97-98 USDM Galants have a 4 peice tailight assembly. LH and RH quarter panel lights and a LH and RH tailight on each side of the trunk lid.

[hk20000]

but they are just plastic parts that fill up the center right? The trunklid itself should be largely identical?

lemme search:

ah but then wouldn't making the 94-96 one make more sense? Since the world market never came in the USDM 97-98 form.....so making the old version would cater to some local Galant owners while excess can be sold through eBay or what not....:confused:

I hate the 97-98 design btw.

[kolio]

the trunk lids are diffrent. everybody has their opinions. but i don't like 94-96 style. and then on top of it pay like 250 + for diamond edition tails

[Bezzle]

or < $250 :)

[kolio]

i'm not even gonna say how much i have spent in 2 month on this car. unless they are free......

[Bezzle]

Gotta admit, DE tails on a CF trunk would be secks.

So no list started for 97-98 buyers?

[Blue Ice]

I really can't do it, but if i did it would have to be 94-96 trunk, I'm not ditching my tails either.

x2 cant let the tails go! Would be nice to have a CF trunk.

[Blue Ice]

so have either of you asked the manufacturers about cf hoods? if they would make cf hoods for our car... specifically CF Evo style hoods?

[Da_Gal]

that what make this so have to get going. What cant decide on a truck to make a mold from. The guy at Raceonusa explained that he would make the new trunk cause the will be more ppl wit a latter model, since 7g are getting old and not a lot of 7gers beside members TGC are up on the JDM spec stuff. I more cost effective for him.

Well it's only North American Galants that can use these trunks then OF COURSE it's going to suck for sales.

Make 94-96 tails so they can sell world wide. sheesh. :smt074

[T-double]

well I want one but wow...how much for a 94-96

[hk20000]

I want one too for 94-96.

[Blue Ice]

with the responce of the board are you guys considering just having them make 94-96 trunks? is there any more info about this?
