SoCal JDM Underpanels Groupbuy Round 2

So since I wasn't able to get in on the last one that was done, I'd figure I'd start my own if anyone else is interested. I want to place an order from Japan Parts and we can save some money both on parts and shipping if we buy multiple sets. We can either have a group of 4 or 8. The exchange rate is more favorable now than the last GB so we'll get a slightly better price. Who's in?

Based on a quote (5/8/13) thru paypal, each set would cost approximately $230 shipped to my place in Lakewood.

List so far:

1. Trojan_SC
2. Shutter (Deposit Paid)
3. ScionFR-J (Deposit Paid)
4. P@ul (Deposit Paid)
5. SkullWorks (Deposit Paid)
6. kvnchu (Deposit Paid)
7. Apeks (Deposit Paid)
8. Re_Invention(Deposit Paid)

Aero qualities, protection of undercarriage and it looks cleaner underneath.

True. Most people don't spent near as much time under their own car as they should. I, however, try to clean under the vehicle every time I'm under. I like keep things clean all around... I guess.

Thank you. I will.

Do you have an estimated close date?

Is the price locked in?

PS. I too am a FJ owner. If you need anything let me know. I am a I4WDTA certified trainer.

Does anybody know if the temp properties of the car are ok with these? I don't want to overheat my exhaust pipes or my LSD and possibly melt something.
