I guess I won't mention enticing pricing anymore...

however, it wouldn't be the first time I've taken a hit so others can get a good deal...

Alot of work has gone into this bumper and to offer it at a discount right off the bat doesn't sound feasible for Rookie and all those involved. I'm sure they will be at a lose for the first few sold to begin with.

Plus..theres alot of interest already..no real need for a group buy.

I'm not trying to say this is how it is or put words in anyones mouth, just my way of thinking

The pricing will be more than fair. Some things to consider.

There is no volume target with this bumper.
We are not a huge company banging out products for any car that looks like it might be a market.
The bumpers are mocked up, molded and will be produced here.

With the 05-06 bumper I tried to keep it quiet as to not let anyone down. We had some issues with the mold and we are shooting to make it right. It's going to be right or it's not going to happen.

Just to have a reasonably priced alternative to the limited options is a good thing.

I was just joking about bumping this thread back up. Either one is fine. Both bumpers are at the mold makers. We expect the mold sot be done end of week, will order up 1-2 of each and have the test cars come in for fitment check.
