Group opportunity for Motorsport Tech spacers

[abuch91]

Got mine the day after ordering. Give them a few more days since i'm pretty sure they're closed for the holidays.

Well I called and spoke to Lenny on Monday, it's Friday and I still haven't received anything. I don't really care, I just want to know if this is an issue that needs to be corrected before waiting 2+ weeks and finding out they had the wrong email. If everyone else hasn't got one yet, no biggie.

I don't think I received an invoice yet now that I think about it. I'll check my spam folder.

Yeah just checked, nothing yet on my end either. I know my card was charged. I'll call during the week. I'm sure he was backed up trying to send emails to everyone.

How would I figure out what size spacers I need for a flush set-up with 255/45's on the base model 18's and Steeda Progressive springs?? I'm in once I get this figured out!

Group buy is over.

That's what I figured, no worries then.

I'm at my clear shield appointment now. $100 to do both areas in front of the rear wheels, from the bottom of the rocker to the top of the tire tapering from bottom to top. I'll post pics when its done. There is no pattern in the system for this area so it has to be traced then cut by hand (off the car) then applied.

Here's the coverage I decided to go with.

Looking down the side of the car when eye level with the front wheel you can't see the front part of the green tape line so in theory I have the widest part covered that could be in the path of any rocks/debris getting slung by the front tires.

So I talked to some buddies of mine over the weekend who have after market wheels with aggressive offsets that have the lips and tires pretty much where these spacers will put us. After talking to them and looking at their cars they have no road rash and have done no touch up or protection so it might not be an issue after all. Both guys have had their cars on the road pretty regularly and live here in shit hole OKC where there are more crap roads than trees. So I might just wait it out. Going with those AM flaps is pretty much out now because I'm switching to the Roush valance and they don't fit. [MENTION=9948]redline727[/MENTION] could you find out if they will sell those pre-cut pieces just in case? I work for a large shipping company so getting them won't be an issue but see if they would sell them pre-cut and ready to go and how much they would charge if I pay shipping. If it isnt bad I might do it just to be safe but I think we might be over thinking this a bit

I'm also interested in getting these .

Here is the final result. Sorry it doesn't show well in pics. Which is a good thing. I think it was worth the 90$ (10% off the 100$ for a military discount) and better looking then front mud flaps. And still not permanent. Will most likely last longer then I usually keep a car.

Got to look pretty closely to see it in pics. Easier to notice in person outside. But still looks clean.

Indoor light

Outside driver side

Outside passenger side

Looks good, but i can't see the front clearly.

[MENTION=18458]Midnight_LMR[/MENTION] I can ask them if they would be willing to cut some and ship them. But to be honest I don't know if they even kept the stencil they made to do mine. They mark it with the green tape, lay a yellow vinyl layer over it, then the tape has something in it that you pull up and it tears through yellow layer leaving you with a stencil to cut out the clear shield with. And all the profit in this stuff is in the labor. So I don't know how cost effective it would be for them to sell it that way. But couldn't hurt to ask.

Tried to get a couple better pics.

I thought I read here on this board that a few members with spacers had mentioned they noticed rock chips after putting the spacers on, and they felt it was due to the tires being pushed out by the spacers. :shrug:

redline727 ... that's a good deal at $90 for both sides installed. Looks good.
