redz mentioned in another post that you guys might be able to get type-r spoilers for us rd2 guys. just wondering if this is possible and what the pricing might look like on those.

also while i'm thinkin about it can u get ahold of the rd2 steering wheels with out airbags. the three spoke kind. they look like this

REDZMAN

I'd say yes and yes. In my previous position we were able to ship those wings over.

What's a good price? $300 a piece?

I swear there was a better looking non airbag stock steering wheel somewhere.

maybe more like 200-250 for the spoiler and MJ said he could get that wheel from hyundai for like 180.


java- do you have a pic of that other wheel? MJ said something about it to me but he said it was like 800 bucks to get one from hyundai.

REDZMAN

Shipping on one of those wings, as big as they are, is going to be 60 to 70 bucks, at least. Hell, mine cost 95 to ship from Canada when I bought it.

Companies occasionally make a profit too, mind you.

i would like that steering wheel probably. depending on how much it would be. have them add it to the site if they can get it redz

as far as the pricing on the spoilers, since its over seas, 280-300$ shipped NEW, would be pretty fair. they are a pretty big oversea item.

people would probably be more apt to buy the wheel if it was a lil under the 300$ mark.

i understand the whole, the business wants to make money thing, but if its too much people wont buy it.

REDZMAN

The steering wheels would probably be less than $100. The wings, even when we did the GB at Kspec, were $275 I think? That was shipping 2 per box over here, and we still barely made $20 overall when I packaged and shipped them out individually. Sorry, but at those labor hours, $20 isn't enough to justify the work.

Feel free to buy it from Mad John. You may be waiting awhile. I love the guy, but goddamn he won't answer PM's or anything.

yeah 20$ profit wouldnt be worth the time, and packaging at all. it would be nice to get them and all for people, but unless the SFR is making some $$$ on them, it doesn't make sense business wise.

well i do feel that on the spoiler it really is a big item and 300 i guess wouldnt be that bad if you consider how much the shipping would be.

but on the wheel side of things i would pay 200 maybe 225 for it, but i mean you can really buy a top of the line wheel for the 300ish range.

if you could look into some exact numbers i would still be intrested on the wheel. i guess for the moment i'm going to try to track down a used spoiler.
