Okay, just got off the phone with Speedhut.com again, and they are working on our gauges. They are interested in running a group buy for us, and it will save EVERYONE $20 to $40 a set.

Here's the deal.

Minimum of 10.

$75 per set.
You pick your colors.
You pick your customizations (logos, flames, ect).
You pick KPH/MPH.

You pay $75, and they will be shipped to me in bulk. I will box them up and ship out individually to each person, anywhere in the world. USA will cost $6 for Priority Mail, Canada and Europe should only cost $11 for Global Priority Mail.

That's it.

Here's what you need to do.

1. Go to http://www.speedhut.com/el_detail-catagory...htm#design_area and scroll to the bottom of the page.

2. Hit OKAY and design your gauge faces using the generic set on the screen.

3. Once you are fully done, click FINISH and you will get a screen with your order. Looks something like this.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Tiburon 2003
REVERSE Jet Black w/ White-Cobalt blue Font
Font=Eurostyle Font
Red Shift line
Graphics = Splash Blue
Logo 1 = American Pride
Logo 2 = Checkered Flags
Standard Inverter
Price=115.95
RDTIBURON.COM FORUM USERNAME HERE!!!</div>

As you can see, if I were to order this set regularly, it would be $115.95 plus shipping, I'm getting them for $75 plus shipping. That's a $40 savings.

4. Copy and paste that into your paypal NOTES section when sending payment.

Payments will be a total of $75 to Customvinyls @ gmail.com

We will hold payments until we have at least 10, but the GB members that have paid can have us submit the $$$ any time after that.


THESE ARE FOR RD2 GAUGE FACES, THEY WILL FIT THE RD1 BUT THE IDIOT LIGHTS WILL BE A BIT OFF. IF YOU WANT PERFECT FIT, SWAP TO A RD2 GAUGE CLUSTER.


I have submitted the RDTiburon.com logo, the Turbulence and Tiburon logos, all to Speedhut.com for use. I currently do not know if they will be free, as I belive we need them in Vector format. If anyone here wants to VECTOR those images for me, or confirm that they already are, you might save us a bunch of time/money again.

After the GB is complete, these will go on Speedhut.com for regular order, at the regular price of $90 plus shipping/logos/customizations. We may do future GB's with them, and if possible and this goes well, I will have them make PLASTIC 3 POD PILLAR replacements for us and REAL stainless steel gauge bezels. You have until the time I submit the order to change your order, no refunds will be given for any reason.

I'm in, but have a question.
I just designed a set with no logo/graphics. My total came to 87.95. I see your design WITH graphics/logo comes to 115.95.
Are we able to select any options we want, and still get the $75 price tag?
I want to know if the price will be the same, no matter which options we select.

edit: Oh, i'm a knob. You wrote "free customization" right in the sub-title. I didn't notice that.

I'm debating if it would look stupid having RDTiburon on both the tach and speedometer. What do you guys think?....I would order a set if I saw a real set first. That's why I can't do GB's like this and the CF door sill's. I like to see what the product is going to look like in it's entirety...Will there be pictures or anything of a real set, or will the first time these will be seen is after people buy them and actually recieve them?

^^^ Read it through.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>THESE ARE FOR RD2 GAUGE FACES, THEY WILL FIT THE RD1 BUT THE IDIOT LIGHTS WILL BE A BIT OFF. IF YOU WANT PERFECT FIT, SWAP TO A RD2 GAUGE CLUSTER.</div>

We would each need a copy of the RDT.com logo, right? Because it asks to upload your own image.
My selection as follows:

REVERSE White Dial w/Dark Blue Font
Font= Swis Font
Red Shift line
Graphics = None
Logo 1 = Hottie
Text 2=RDTiburon.com
Standard Inverter

Except I will replace Text 2=RDTiburon.com with the RDT.com Logo when I submit the order.

^^+1 on that question. I would prefer kph.

And, I think the redline will be made the same as stock. That would make sense, anyway.

They probably can since they can do no redline. I may go that way. Not sure really.

Dude, if you can't imagine Carbon Fiber with the RD from our logo, at the top of the page on it, you need to go to Honda Tuning instead. LOL The pics of the real sets are all over the site, go look. The setup on Speedhut.com to design your own set is the best you can do, and it's VERY accurate.

I think it would look dumb in both places, I liked my username and the site title, but will probably go with Username and the site logo.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Badshah @ Dec 13 2007, 04:21 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Are those also for RD1?</div>

Warned.

Grow up, READ.

I will submit the logos to them, just make sure you let me know if you want the official RDT logo, or you want the text.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Sea-Ray Tech @ Dec 13 2007, 07:53 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>Another thing... can they make the redline higher?</div>

No.

And default will be MPH unless you ask otherwise.

Just submit your request for KPH with your order information. I'll make sure they know.

I'm going to check for orders right now.
