Rare 1st gen parts (Possible Group Buy)!!!!

[D323]

Well i hate to be the one to bring it up but i have trust issues, And if im gonna spend a grand it would be nice to have some faith lol

Completely understandable.
going out on a limb is tough and thankfully the only time I got burned was only for like 5 bucks.

That's a totally legit question. I know about this guy and the products he sells as much as you guys. That's the reason why I started this thread so we could discuss all the issues and hopefully be able to pull this one together. I am not personally involved with this but I am pretty sure if there's enough interest we could figure everything out from shipping costs to some sort of secure payment method. The guy seems serious enough judging by the 10 posts he has on this forum. Hopefully he'll stop by sometime today to clear up some of the questions that people have had. Keep them coming!!!

if it is legit i wouldnt mind the 4door side skirts and either the gtr bumper or mazdaspeed one if i can get a better picture of it .Jon

Here's another pic that I found of the mazdaspeed bumper. Still the same angle though

Good Christ.. that is sooo hard.

[norwegian323]

...and what about the clear corners? Are those also possible to get from this guy?

[D323]

one question. The bumper looks like it curves up under the lights....
so if we got the bumper, would we no longer need the USDM black trim piece the fits between (under) the headlights above the bumper?

That was the one thing I always hated about the from was that little trim piece.

hi guys,

so i've read all the curiousity.......yup it all depends on our trusts.
all the parts that i posted (Mazdapeed bumper - w/o sportlights, air vents, wheel arches, gtr center grille, side skirt, gtr bumper - w/o sportlights) can be supplied at any time, but the request for the garnish, rear bumper and the clear corners is a bit hassle. it's hard to get, especially the clear corners, it's a nightmare to us here......but some somehow we manage to get it! it just all about luck & $$!! but i can update with u guys if i have it. my next effort is to post the detail pics - mazda emblem on the s skirts, mazdaspeed emblem on the Mazdaspeed bumper.

about the shipping service, i've asked the abx courier service here. it cost about USD$30/kg. but now the prob is the int money transfer........ i got no exp in this kind of deal, that's y i need help from u guys.

so once this prob is settled, y not u guys try buying the small parts - air vent/garnish/wheel arch.

is paypal an international thing or not?
I know wire transfers cost an arm and a leg to do, almost easier to send money over. would it be possible for a2m1's banks in Malaysia to cash checks written in the US? I mean from one bank to another, wouldn't that work?

[a2m1]

the nearest pay pal is in s'pore. no billing add in m'sia. i was wondering to open an int account such as hsbc/ std charted.... any recmdn guys?

[silver03p5]

would international money orders work?

[Chad]

yeah thats what i would think bout using is a money order of some sort.. but yah if u want 2 start with the small parts first. hit me up with a garnish

[Marc93lx]

I've wired money to both Malaysia and Germany. It was a $35 fee at my bank, and that sucks.

Basically what is needed to do the transfer is just your info:
Your Name
Bank Name/Code Number
Account Number
Account Routing Number
Swiss Code

It is somewhat troublesome to do a wire transfer because of the fees and the fact that you have to go down to the bank and fill out paperwork. It would be so much easier if there was another way, plus the fees suck ass. That seems to be the biggest concern at the moment.
Find out if we can use international money orders or something similar.

[norwegian323]

Finally one advantage for us living i Norway. My bank, called Skandiabanken, offers no charge to transfer money to other countries and I can do it all on the web since this bank is a web-only bank.

So if and when there is some clear corners available count me in!!

[Kevin]

truthfully, all reasearch must be completed before i take conisderation, but i am good for the funds for a garnish.. if it can be done. my suggestion would be to consolidate the group's funds to one trusted member of the community, and have them wire the transfer altogether.. this way when the time comes, all non-paying peeps lose out on the chance to get their **** and thats that.. funds sent, our buddy has the money to buy the parts, do the shipping, and we're finished. but again, theres so many missing links to getting all of this together.
peace
