Do most understand this.

Lets say a CF trunk costs 600 dollars (just a number)

Duraflex for the argument will cost 400 dollars

Shipping on both an extra 100 dollars

Paint, Labour on your trunk will be around the 400+ dollar mark.

So now your spending almost 1,000 dollars for a trunk. Instead of the 600 dollars for the CF trunk.

Why not get the CF trunk and paint it if you don't like the look?

From a business aspect, Knowing how the trends are currently and knowing that the cobalt community typically brings a "cheaper" market. I would be very hessitant mass producing a part that will cost 1000+ dollars compared to a more "trendy" alternative for 600 dollars. Because i am sad to say, and extra 400 dollars for something of "lesser" quality would discourage most members on here from purchasing it.

 

people gotta be cheap....

 

I'm not buying a carbon trunk and not have a carbon hood ....looks ugly IMO ..so I buy a cf rink 700 bucks shipped ..then another 800 for the hood I would want......that's 1500 ......

I would like to know the answer to why not both options...the molds are the same?

 

SO WHO IS THE BASTARD THAT SAID IN MY LAST POST THIS WOULD NEVER HAPPEN!!!!

Well, lets find out and ban his ass from buying one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Obviously I would not have posted this if we did not care about what the community wants. This poll doesn't show the amount of people who will actually buy the trunk. Based off of the success of the Duraflex or Carbon Fiber version of this trunk we will decide whether or not we want to make both available. I am pushing for both, but as of right now its not up to me. Once the price is finalized we'll see who sticks around and who backs out.

Aw be nice. haha but yes. As soon as we are done with our Altima Coupe project the trunk begins!

 

yeah i realize that. thats why either way i dont care.

 

False statement. its not that bad if its a close fit and not totally off. i had to mess with many duraflex body kits and they werent too bad. im sure itll be a PITA if it was off by alot tho. just saying.

 

If i can get one for $350 - $500, I'm in for sure. $600+ not so sure but maybe.

 

You cant even find a OEM trunk for that much lmfao lol

 

Hey I got mine for $160.

 

and im getting a CF trunk for $50 but thats shush shush lol but ordering a CF or any aftermarket trunk off a vendor isnt going to be 350 and if its 500 thats not shipped lol.

 

group buy? ^_^

 

not if only 10 peeps are buying lol

 

well the op said 350 - 599 for dura

 

Car and truck body kits & parts for mx3, s10, SUV, civic, neon, focus, etc.

499 from ED for a OEM CF trunk......

now do the math

This is going to require more work then just getting a molding from a oem trunk so its going to be more than 499

 

I voted for the CF. I cant wait to get rid of that damn high rise.

 

I say CF also

 

I dont care what some other guy on some other site is selling a completely different piece for. I am going by what the OP said.

 

after this project is availble are you open to other suggestions as to what we would like if theres enough people ?

 

the OP is extreme dimensioners. extreme dimensions sells as OEM style carbon trunk for $499.00. they are not some other guy. it's the same guy

 

THats extreme demensions......I rest my case

 

Im glad someone else actually has a IQ higher than Obama's approval rating.

 

. . . . .Damn dude.

 

well that still doesnt help his case. I think ED knows how much they sell an oem style trunk for. And if they do (which they should) then the estimates on the new trunk probably had taken that into consideration. Also, if they are purchasing and reselling oem style trunks, they would probably be more expensive than a trunk they manufacture themselves. I dont know what the price will be and I am not gonna argue about it. However, I am just gonna go by what the OP said.

 

Wish this would have come out back when I had my Cobalt! I prefer Duraflex myself. Not really big into cf trunks.
