I asked RDR if they are interested in this. They replied and asked me what kind of interest I can generate first. They go for $549 retail. Please check here Please post here if you are interested in and what knid of price you are willing to pay. (cheeper the better of cause ) If there is enough interests, I will contact them again and try to get a deal.

Thanks

At 450, I too would be very interested! How many folks do we need to secure this price?

If for exapmple RDR is cool with this price, but only with 5 or 10 buyers, you might want to consider a cross post in the suspension forum here, and also on MINI2 to get more exposure...

$450 seems a bit optimistic. I'll be surprised if he goes for it but I'm definitely in at that price...and still interested even if it's more like $500.

Likewise, I'm looking to make a purchase in the next 2 weeks, so I hope we can get some closure on this, one way or the other...

I will be installing either the Hsport spring or coilovers in the next few weeks. If the price is right, I will be interested.

OK GOOD NEWS GUYS! Charlie agreed to take 10 minimum order at $450 !! We still have to work out the details but at this point I would like to get the names of people who can commit to buying a set at this price. Please PM me with your full name, address and an e-mail address.

Threads Merged

I merged all the threads about this group buy into one spot, left a link to this thread in Performance Mods :: Suspension, and retitled this thread to show the group buy was no longer in "feeler" mode. Let's keep the discussion focused in one spot.

Thanks,
Dave

Before I commit, Webb Motorsport just introduce their camber plates. Anyone look into getting Randy's VS. RDR camber plates. I only want to do this once. What is the major differences between the two?

I PM'd pfunk about Randy's. I just spoke with him today. They are going for 495, so this deal is a better price. I really don't want to take away the momentum that is brewing here and start talking about Randy's plates... It would be best to call him to get the details...

OK some updates. Charlie at RDR will deal with individual order (shipping, CC charge etc)even though this is a group buy. Please PM me if you are interested in. I will send you a detailed instruction. Some of you want these puppies asap.Deadline for this group buy is set on Sept Friday 10th!! I really think this is a steal deal. If you are thinking about a set of Camber Plates, don't miss this opotunity!

I'm in, anyone else?

This is a great deal, I'm really surprised he came down to $450! I'm ready to do HSport springs, Koni dampers and an H&R front sway bar, so it's perfect timing for camber plates. I'm ordering his Koni adjustment tool ($15) also - allows you to adjust the Konis with the plates in place.

Charlie is the best

Charlie is true to his word and to his products. The plates are beautiful and elegant.

I'm In!

Can you here me know? Good.

I'm puttin' my money where my mouth is. I set the price and I'm buyin'. To be honest, I didn't think it'd fly. But Charlie is a good man. Thanks to pfunk for puttin' in the effort to make it happen.

I think we need to shanghi the old Honda slogan, "You meet the nicest people in a MINI."

Now for the rest of you nice people out there. Don't miss this golden opportunity. There are other camber plates at this price but not for this quality.

I'm going for it too. I got an email from Masaki earlier about sending an email directly to Charlie at RDR. Will that be the procedure then? Just want to confirm.
