Group buy is possible, however, retail pricing for FG is starting under $400 so no need to worry.

I'll probably end up painting at least one Sepang. There are several different configurations I'm looking at.

1. Fiberglass with black gel coat
2. Fiberglass painted body color
3. Fiberglass with middle portion painted body color
4. Carbon Fiber
5. Carbon Fiber painted body color
6. Carbon Fiber with middle portion painted body color

Likely, the first one will be a #1, followed by a #4. The other ones will likely follow. I'm looking at a source right now for painting. If you guys would rather paint it afterward that is fine but I figured some people would rather just get it all ready to install. Thoughts?

Just did the last test fit! So far it's been fitted on three separate vehicles since I wanted to be confident that it would fit correctly. Looking good.

LOL sure thing but you'll have to pay the "long term testing" fee.

We are considering adding a type of skid plate that should help. I believe the height of the lip is about 3/4 inch or less.
