ITEM: Advan Carbon Fiber MK2 Sunroof Panel
GROUP BUY START DATE: Thursday December 17, 2015
GROUP BUY END DATE: Friday January 29, 2016
QUANTITY REQUIRED: Need 22 Sold or All funds get returned. That's 22 Paid in Full, 1/2 payments count as 1/2 orders.

Kit Details

All the details you'll need are in the specific link's here

PRICE

Option 1: $350 - Paid for the Panel in Full & Shipping to be paid Later
Option 2: $195 - Deposit. $155 + Shipping Due prior to shipping

Ordering and Payment Information


All orders must go through the website linked above, all pricing is in USD. The price you pay does not include shipping, we don’t have shipping quotes but for Continental USA bank on about $30. Canadian orders will ship from Canada and be roughly the same price. These details will be worked out later.

There are 100% NO refunds, this is a HUGE project that takes a LOT of money to make it work. IF you have something that comes then it’s up to you to sell your hatch privately. We will not be able to entertain any requests for refunds…once the order goes in it’s in.

Canadian Customers pay sales tax calculated Automatically by the shopping cart on the site….there are some glitches with the site and some Canadians aren’t charged tax. You will be asked to send that prior to shipping. There is NO tax for US Customers (except CA Residents)

I know the timing is horrible, but I’m not sure there is ever good timing. I’m allowing once again the option to pay for ½ now, ½ plus shipping before it ships out. Please note, if you chose this option and fail to pay when you are required to pay you forfeit your deposit. Please note there is a $20 fee for choosing this option, this is a LOT more work and also increases our risk so really encourage customers to try to pay in full. If everyone pays via deposit only we’ll need a lot more than 22 sold so please try to only use this option if you need it.




Timeline

Advan has advised they can start this late January roughly, what that means in terms of production and when they will ship is not something I can confirm. Please note, as with the hoods and hatches…Advan is doing us a HUGE favor building these. So if the group buy goes through it will take a few months to ship everyone out. Orders will be shipped out on a first pay first ship bases with Canadians as always getting their products after all US orders have shipped.

As always any questions just let me know!!

PLEASE help spread the word without 22 sold this will not happen now.

Lady and Gentleman;

just here for a small update as I realize once again this is going slower than I want it to, I'm hoping for a better update tomorrow as I have given Advan the first 1 shipping labels.

I actually really came here to just say thanks, a few of you have sent "extra" funds for your shipping payment. I was going to return all the extra payments, I actually got yelled at by someone suggesting it's very offensive to do so when people are trying to help. I will admit, one of my biggest faults is the inability to accept help...so, I'll go against my judgement and say thank and keep the extra funds, it's really unnecessary but really appreciate the gesture.

I feel compelled to ask you to PLEASE contact me if you have done so by mistake and would like to get the difference back, I don't want to assume that all that have done so have done it on purpose.

Thanks again!!

^^^And this is why we support George in his endeavors!

I've never had any problems that were his "fault", and the ONE time there was an issue with UPS, George bent over backwards, and went way out of his way, to make things "right".

This is a vendor we can trust!

Hey guys;

First 5 are shipped and some delivered...here is the current status:

Paul C - Delivered Oct/7
Corey C - Delivered Sept/30
Tim M - Delivered Oct/7
Keith N - Deilvered Sept/30
Yasmany A - Will be delivered next Business Day

I think I need to note and I will send a separate email out to everyone that purchased a roof, you will need to drill the hole for the sunroof seal. In the 1st couple that went out the holes were drilled too big and logistically speaking it was better to figure out the correct sizing and have them leave them undrilled. I will update the 1st post with the bit size and send out an email too.

Hey guys;

want to remind you all, any issues with the product says as mentioned above you should really call Advan as there isn't much I can do personally if you have any issues/concerns: https://www.advancarbon.com/support/. Many issues can be dealt with on your own but you'll want to check with them to make sure you know what you're doing.

Want to stress and it's a learning experience for me too, these are engineered to be as perfect as possible at our price point. Meaning if we wanted these to be OEM Perfect the price is 2-3x. Advan has the capabilities to do this as they do it for their higher end brands such as Porsche etc...but it's not something we can entertain.
