    Default Any interest in a Hsv Gts fender group buy?

    I plan on getting these fenders in the near future. I believe that JHP sells them for around $2050 shipped. What I'd like to know is if there is 'serious' interest in buying a set of these.

    I'm going to contact the Aussie source for exact pricing and a possible discount for a group buy. This will depend on the serious interest here. I believe they normally sell for around $1200 there. With a few guys interested then the shipping shouldn't be that bad. Obviously the more people than the cheaper it would be.

    I'd be willing to be the main contact and have the freight shipped here and deal with the customs BS. I just went through it and while its frustrating, at least I know what to expect.

    Check with Crazy Paul, if you are willing to get a bunch of fenders shipped to you. He can probably help you.

    Will do. Unfortunately Mick and Paul are on opposite ends of the country. But I'm checking with Paul to see what we can do. It would take a few guys in on it for it to be worth the shipping.

    Umm just something to be aware of.

    The shipment that Steve organized from Holmart to himself in Seattle cost a substantial amount more in "Port Fees and charges" than the very recent one you and I did to Cleveland. Even tho our shipment was larger in all respects.

    I've talked to a couple people about this difference and so far nobody can figure out the reason for it. It might be wise to base your calcs on Steves figures so then there are no nasty surprises.

    Yeah, I can't figure that one either. I still think it would save between 300-500 a piece if three or more people were interested. Whats the best way to get ahold of Mick?

    Interested.

    Just don't tell my GF.

    EDIT: Maybe a bit late in the game to ask this question, but, are the GTS fender vents functional?
