group buy real carbon fiber hoods

Vis is willing to make a real carbon fiber hood that has a roller edge unlike the ones that are already out their. I called them and they said they need atleast 10 people that are willing to do this. The price as of right now is like 450-550$. He told me to contact him at a later date to get a little better price.

I don't get it, why do these companies want you to call at a later time for a "better deal"? Does the price of CF go up/down or something?

sure is... so there is no way to clean your damned windows unless you want to wait until you go home... driving at night with a fucked up windshield... or keep a squirt bottle and a squeegee in your car... HAHA... but that is ghetto too.
