Default Ducktail Group Buy UK

Guys,

Have arranged for a group buy of fibreglass Ducktail engine lids for our 964's. these are made by the same chap who made my fibregalss tinware. He is a perfectionist and his work is really excellent. The new lids will be made up with the correct fixings for the 964. You will also have to purchase a grille separately.

The price per unit will be £340 in total, cash. There are cheaper units available online but the quality is very low, so this is an excellent price, especially considering the standard of Roger's work. Decent quality ones from Germany sell for close to £480 plus postage: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Burzel-Ent...item41641163ee

We need to order an initial 5 units, Roger is really busy and can't commit to doing any more than that at the low rate so first come, first served. Timing wise it will take about a month for the first one to be produced and then roughly 3-4 weeks thereafter for each one. If you want to go ahead I will need a deposit of £100 and then the balance of £240 two weeks before delivery. Postage will be extra depending on location, Roger is based in Oxfordshire so you could pick up in person if needed or i could bring down to London when i travel up there. I go roughly once a month.

Please only get in touch if you are happy to put down a deposit.

1. jack.pe (Confirmed, deposit paid)
2. MusicMad Mike (Confirmed, deposit paid)
3. Baldy (confirmed, deposit paid)

5.

If you want to go ahead please send me a PM and will send you my bank details, once I have received your deposit I will add you to the list.

Interesting... so apart from the grill, is this a bolt on replacement for the standard engine lid?

Absolutely and I expect quality to be at least on par with the German ones having seen Roger's work.

Jack,
all hooked up. That should go nicely with the front splitter I sorted out from ebay last week.

Excited.

Oooh. Very cool indeed. My car is in the shop having some long awaited paint done. Not exactly a ***** out full respray but more than just bumpers and hopefully Peppa should be looking great for the main summer months and protected for the rest of the year. If the duck arrives in time I'll get that sprayed up and fitted as part of the same job.
