I would love to have of set of these (anodized red), but the $$ is TIGHT at my house until after I pay my taxes.  :gaah:

If I can figure out how to earn $200 "off budget," then...  :D
I'd rather be driving! :D

I would like a set in orange, count me in.  I agree with the Mobil 1 for the oil cap.

We're a definite MAYBE here also. Work is slow, and other expenses have developed, so all I can say now is maybe.

Once again the group from Joe's garage rises to the top of the group buy list.  Where are all the other groups?

I should have a more definite "Yea" or "Nay" on Saturday. If "Yea," I would want red anodized.

Solid, I agree that they do look a little brighter than the actual brazen orange, but I still think they will complement the engine compartment well.  I have some hose covers that are similar in color.

Put me down for maybe for the red.  Preference for the Mobil one cap on the oil interface.  I will decide after due dilligence.  I have already stated that the performance mod would be my next, so to keep my word, I might have to bail on this one.  I must live with my conscience and possibly order it later?

Colors offered, Black, Blue, Red and Orange or for Critterman - plain

Group Buy Interested:


what about shipping costs .... FREE??? on group buy ???? if not what is cost to ship to 77640 ... this will probably eliminate any discount and make it harder to justify ...
