VeeDub 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2010 I just picked up a set of 16x7 RS003s yesterday, am ordering 2 sets of lips for myself so am itching too! I hope you can appreciate the work involved in working through 6 different quotes, 3 different exchange rates and three car clubs in on the group buy (one in Australia). I am doing my best to ensure we get the best possible prices. Will get back to everyone ASAP, appreciate your patience. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VeeDub 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2010 Hey Tristan. Could you find anyone who did LM barrels? There's a good chance we will be using JustMatz and pretty sure they do LM barrels, just waiting to hear back from them on bolts/barrels/hex screw pricing. How wide you want them? http://www.justmatz.co.uk/proddetail.php?prod=Barrells Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VeeDub 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2010 Thanks for that VD! These prices are all $NZD? Correcto, all prices in NZD. I've allowed sweet F.A of a buffer so if exchange rate goes balls up i'll in the sh*t! Hence trying to get payment through asap Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

VeeDub 0 Report post Posted June 21, 2010 THURSDAY CUT OFF. Only one person has paid for their parts. I am placing the order this Friday, if you haven't paid by THURSDAY you'll get nothing. I hope you understand there's no money yet a fair bit of risk in this for me and I have allowed a buffer of sweet f**k all to ensure we all get the sharpest possible prices. If exchange rate goes belly up i'll be subsidising your lips, hence THURSDAY cut off. Cheers guys, lets get this done! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

340i 3 Report post Posted July 4, 2010 hey VeeDub, is everything on track for these? do we have an ETA? I've ordered my spike bolts and they're on the way now. I cant wait to build my new rims. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VeeDub 0 Report post Posted July 5, 2010 hey VeeDub, is everything on track for these? do we have an ETA? I've ordered my spike bolts and they're on the way now. I cant wait to build my new rims. We've had problems with VW Watercooled Australia members doing international transfers so to get it underway I've put extra money in and they will repay me. Mega headache but everything is ordered now. I'm waiting to hear an ETA from Peter, they have all the 15s in stock but the 16s (mine) and 17s (yours) have to be made especially. Last time he said 3-4 weeks, will update you with accurate ETA when I know. Start getting excited!! I'm polishing my nuts this week Also ordered myself a set of half height caps - pure porn!

VeeDub 0 Report post Posted August 8, 2010 The bits are all in NZ at customs now, should get a call from them sometime soon. One thing I didn't think about was the GST on them, hopefully it works out without having to pay anything but I highly doubt that as a possibility?

VeeDub 0 Report post Posted August 8, 2010 First box arrived at my parents' door step today! Not a word about GST which is a mega fluke! Fingers crossed it's the same with the other 2 packages. I will pick it up early arvo and update you on what bits are here and pick up details for relevant people!! YEAH BABY! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VeeDub 0 Report post Posted August 9, 2010 3 packages were sent one day apart so I'm expecting the other two packages this week. Once I have everything I will sort into each person's bits and PM each of you the pick up details. Anyone requiring additional postage will need to be in touch (340i I have yours under control). Will update again later in the week once it's all here. Hopefully each parcel comes through GST free, if not, it will be split evenly which is the fairest way to do it. Here's an RM teaser to keep you going until the final update! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
