Hows Does He Do It ?

Ed, If it isn`t too late. I would like both a 4" and 5". I sent you a PM aswell.

Guys I will get some news by next Tuesday, yes I know its been awhile and I am sorry for the delay. My source is situated out of my way so I have to make a special trip to go get it and pay him cash, so if members who were interested and then don`t commit, I am stuck with backplates and cash out of my pocket. I also checked the distributor that my source supplies to and their pricing is just too expensive for my liking. I will go to the source for better pricing and selection.

So far for the group buy is as follows:

5" backplate:

1. lecchilo

2. Pats300zx

3. kaval

4. LangMan37

5. LastRide

6. mr.ikon

7. redundant

8. jermar

4" Backplate:

1. kaval

2. lecchilo

3. LangMan37

4. LastRide

5. mr.ikon

6. RDAutosport

7. redundant

8. philttz

Ed, if the pricing is pretty much at where you stated, and you`re pleased with the quality, then I`m all in.

Thanks for all your time and effort :goodjob

3m compounds cost as much here in Canada as in the UK, around $46-$56us for a bottle ! :furious:

Go to your local body shop supply store for the 3m and set up an account with your business. Suddenly its in a range that wont make you :angry. Buy 6 and watch it get even cheaper.....

Ed, I can pay upfront. Once you get a price and what I owe you. Let me know and the method of payment you want and I will send it.

**EdLancer** · 08-11-2008, 10:24 AM

Ok an update for you guys.

I was able to get in touch with my source. He currently has the 5" ones in stock, but the 4" ones are out of stock. He is expecting a shipment within the next week. I told him I would contact him sometimes next week.

So if all goes well, I will place an order with him and expect shipping to you guys by mid August.

cool, thanks Ed

**Pats300zx** · 08-11-2008, 02:50 PM

What are the costs on the backing plate?

**RDAutosport** · 08-11-2008, 11:48 PM

Rich

I haven`t finalized the price as of yet. Will proberly be around $18 for the 4" and $20 for the 5". Shipping will be around $12-$15 to Canada and the USA.

Lets say total cost will be around $53us shipped for the combo, not bad considering the 3M 5" BP alone cost $69us before shipping.

**David Fermani** · 08-12-2008, 08:05 PM

Ed - Do you know what the differences are between your plate and the 3M one? Other than the price. We know the size, shape and look are similar, but do they feel different than the 3M plate (center section material)? Have you tried both kinds for comparison purposes?

**heatgain** · 08-13-2008, 06:42 AM

Ed,

Sorry for the bother but drop me out from the purchase please. Since we started this thread a while ago, I bought the 3m plate from someone in Canada.

Thanks for the effort!

**spartacus_33** · 08-13-2008, 07:16 AM

I`m interested in a 5" plate. Do you have paypal, or a signup page?

**redundant** · 08-17-2008, 01:50 AM

If this is still going on I`d like to express my interest for one of each.
