lincoln - im not offended in any way. If anything i was probably doubtful when you posted Par b/c i asked them before i found FVD. Their pricing was the absolute worst (by alot) of anyone that i contacted. My skepticism was not of you, but of your using Par.

Anyway, if you can work directly with Recaro and they are helpful, then that is wonderful, and im happy to participate.
When i did my group buy, i found recaro was hard to contact and deal with; they shipped the wrong seats on several occassions. Then we had to wait weeks for them to make the correct seat. Plus they wanted to charge alot for anything different (e.g. color stiching, etc) - despite their making the seat from scratch.

Rob, thanks for clearing that up, since I spoke to Recaro last I have been trying to have them e-mail me a wholesale price sheet, which the verbally committed to doing but have failed to deliver. The Recaro building is roughly a mile from my house so I will have to go by there, I can't even get them on the phone anymore.

I've been watching this... since I missed the last GB with Rob. I'm interested in a set of leather Toplines. Thanks.

Hm. I this still going to happen? Anything anyone can do to help? I'm looking to get the custom leather done. What about FVD, like the last group buy?

Rob I am sorry I did not respond sooner, Recaro is IMPOSSIBLE to get a response from so, Motovicity is in their backyard as well and that is what was copied and pasted above.
