Hi All,

As I ordered my Burlwood shift knob from Tim last week at Hondacuraworld, I begged him to bring back some of his old specials that happened before I joined the 'X' community.

He said he would see what he could do, but he mentioned that if I were to initiate a group buy here at acuramdx.org, he'd bring back the specials independent of his monthly steals. Hopefully, there should be enough of us newbies to help everyone out...

So here's my pitch...

With the 'X' showing up in about 4 weeks, I'm running out of time to get my wife the rest of the goodies she expects on her new truck...okay, I want them too... Here's my wish list:

Fender Flares
Tailgate Deflector
Towing Package (my dealer says he'll install for $220 if I provide genuine Acura parts...)

I think Tim mentioned 15 as the magic number for group buy. (Tim, if I have misspoken anywhere here, please publicly flog me.)

Anybody interested? If so, please post to this thread.

On a different note, I want to thank everyone for their insight and wisdom. I've learned so much, and it just keeps getting better.

For what it is worth, next to Tim, Zaino is the greatest thing ever created for the auto industry. I've got a 3-year-old black Ford Contour that looked better than it did the day it was delivered after one application...wow!

Everyone, have a great week!

Fifteen for a group buy is fine, however I won't be able to do the trailer hitch deal....it just weighs too much and UPS costs are high.

Anything else, go for it.

Count me in for a painted tailgate deflector...

 

[rogmandude]

count me in

count me in for the fender flares

I think Tim is planning on having the tailgate deflector be the March special, so you should pick something else.

Tim, what say you?

Count me in for body side molding.

in for flares

A good deal on the fender flares would get me off the fence. I've been waiting for a compelling excuse to get/install them.

Running Boards

I just ordered a moonroof visor, but I might be tempted to buy running boards... How good of a deal are we talking about?

cargo net, cargo cover, oil filter

if price is good

I've created a monster

Okay, what we have to do here is get organized. If you can get 15 people in any thread to buy something in a group, I'll drop the price as I can. Once the correct amount is reached, I'll announce the price and then everyone can decide for themselves if they want to go ahead and purchase. Just because you post doesn't mean you are under obligation to buy. But, it's a good way to get an additional discount

 

[davegood]

Maybe the best thing to do is...

My suggestion -- if you're interested in something start each on it's separate thread....

Running Boards / Side Step signup
Cargo Liner Signup
Splash Guards signup....

you get the idea. That way, it is easy to see how much interest there is.

 

[conradsmith]

How about a poll

Rather than individual threads, why not just have a single poll with the list of potential GB items. Since Tim says we wouldn't be obligated, we don't need to know (right now) who wants what, just how many of each item might be purchased. For the items that have 'enough' (15 or more), we can start a thread for real signup, or Tim can give us a code, or whatever the best next step would be.
Tim, can you set up the poll?
- Conrad

 

[hondacuraplanet]

I'd rather not do it that way because it implies that the group buys would last indefinitely, which they don't. For group buys, I usually give a 2-3 week time frame and after that, they're done.

 

[davegood]

also...

Also, for polls, you can only select one item. If you wanted the boards and a TG deflector, would would have to choose one or the other.....

total so far

Just to add up the total so far. Whoever has interest in some items, please increase the number by one.

fender flares - 3
tailgate defelector - 2
BSM - 1
running board - 2
side step - 1
cargo cover - 1
cargo liner - 1
old filter - 1
splash guard - 1
hitch - 2

I think we are pretty far from 15.

group purchases

I'd be interested in a sidestep.

Where to start...where to start

Still pending the delivery of my SS in Mar, but I definitely have a wish list

Cargo Cover
Separation Net (gotta keep the dogs in!)
Moonroof visor
Burlwood
BSM


Still thinking about Manik SS vs side steps but that's a TBD to see if I can find a decent dealer in Toronto

Have we decided to post separate threads or still with this one catch all thread? I thought Tim was looking for separate ones.
