as for sedans, we'll be making stuff for 03- up to the 37's. just give us some time. we dont want to overwhelm ourselves with too many projects going on at once.

as for the trunk lip, we wont be making that.

that is a good plan, This whole fiasco that just happened with the trunk is a prime exmaple why one should not "bite off more than they can chew".

So if you were to make a trunk Kris, what kind of timeframe and price are you looking at? I don't care if it's glass or CF, I would be painting it.

^hey! lol
I don't mind if my trunk/car is used for fitment but I won't donate my trunk to have it hacked up. Not with the emblem delete I did to it

Kris. I'll call you now so we can talk about making this happen. I still think it would be a good seller.

Hopfully Mach III will fill the void.

I may just end up doing one myself. I'm sure it will save a ton of money over a whole new trunk and cash is tight right now.

As this is in support of a banned sponsor the owners are asking us to keep anything supporting them off for now. If Alex wants to post some pics of his car in the sedan picture share thread I'm ok with that since it is away from any MG related thread.
