Base bumper rear diffuser fin upgrade..

[Melekith]

I'm interested in one of the sets, however I'm posting here rather than PMing you so that I can help you sell more sets!

I would like mine to come non painted, earlier you said that would be a $10 savings...so for a non painted set is that $200 shipped? Reason I want mine non painted is because I'll be plasti dipping some of my base bumper area to mimic a diffuser...and I'd rather just plasti dip these fins for a perfect color match!

Along with that...any luck in sourcing black double sided tape? Can you include the tape, either as a roll or in precut lengths, NOT yet attached to the mounting areas but rather just on the side? This will allow me to paint first worry free.

Sorry if this is all demanding...but I hope these options attract other buyers and help you sell more!

yeah I can do a unpainted set. actually I wasn't able to find any black 3m, but, if I attach the tape before paint, the paint will cover the edges of the tape, and wont hurt it. in this case, I highly recommend you attach the fins first, then plasti dip the fins after they are attached the bumper. my fear is that the tape wont stick that well to the plastidip...and painting it all at the same time will give it a more seamless look.

I really like what your doing but the price is hurting it, along with "painted tape", no mounting hardware and a thrown together template. Plus when the other option is a Roush rear valance you can get on LMR with forum discount for $187 shipped, maybe a price drop or upgraded quality of kit would help it, hopefully you take this as constructive feedback from the forum because I'm sure everyone genuinely appreciates your effort

Does the Roush valance work on a non-premium bumper though?

Also on the price, kinda have to agree. Selling these for $60-70 would put them in a realistic range, and also make them go like hot cakes!

at 60$ or 70$ id be loosing money. if you don't like the price, by all means look for other options. this isn't china, and im not working for slave labor prices

people don't blink an eye about spending $700 for 2 mufflers and 2 tips lol.

i'd do $190 unpainted, shipped with the 3m tape included, but im sorry guys that's as low as I can go. if I cant make anything off these, they really arnt worth selling, and it wouldn't hurt my feeling. I have 3 finished sets, currently unpainted, I'll post pics of them tonight

 

[fordguys550]

if somebody was making these from injection molded plastic then yeah 60 or 70 bucks would be spot on and everybody would have them. theres not many options for us base bumper guys and with the reaction i got from the pics i figured id make a few sets availible to those who wanted something differnt and custom. i dont plan to mass produce these parts.

Yes you can make it work, a guy on here has a posting about it. I just don't really like the Roush all that much cause of how squared off it is.

heres a couple shots showing the 3 sets i have made...you can see they are foberglass and carbon in construction

When you say painted I presume thats just painted black and you don't color match? Nice work!

 

[highvoltage]

Nice work. Wish i had the funds to take a set off your hands!

thanks guys im a composite fabricator at work so those skills come in handy every now and again when it comes to car stuff

well i could do flat black, black with matte clear, or black with semi gloss clear. also...i can pretty much do whatever shape or size you want. ps...tgese turned out alot nicer than the ones on my car. i made a jig to assemble these to help keep the shaped properly so the fit the bunper as best as possible. the set on my car were just some quickies i whipped up to see if id even like them lol

how does $160 (or 150 local pickup with cash) shipped for painted or un painted sound? I really don't want to go lower.

They are cool -- no doubt. However, for the price tag, can't do it. Definitely not discounting your work or trying to dwindle price down, just want you to know there are eyes looking at them but can't justify the cost for what it is.

Yea I'm the same, as badly as I really want these and have been waiting for [MENTION=16017]DansEBM[/MENTION] to come out with his set or someone to do exactly what you have done, I can't justify the cost knowing what will eventually become available through eBay, Amazon, etc. Hella nice work though man and I hope you sell them all, great job :cheers:
