Ebay new belly pan

Post by Styler4077 »

Any one used this company's products?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... SS:GB:1123

£10 UK delivery and a starting bid of £29.

Think they would be interested in a group buy? People are always asking for these on this forum.
We run a group buy scheme on the Mitsubishi evo forum and it seams to work OK with the suppliers.

Cheers

Hmm, just check they come with instructions and fitting kit - few guys I know have bought "bargain" belly pans from German suppliers (as in this case) only to find they then have to make their own fitting fit up.

Not saying it's the same with this supplier, but it is shipped from Germany, and at that price, personally would not expect much.

And I don't see a fitting kit in the piccies, nor are the holes in the belly pan drilled..... :problem: Personally I'd avoid like the plague, you gets what you pay for in this case, and it ain't much Steve

Same as mine. No, doesn't come with a fitting kit or holes predrilled but not difficult to fit really. Just need some 3mm bar that you can bend easily, some 5mm bolts (B&Q) and a bit of time and it's trial and error. Mine is really good quality and thick fibreglass. It has obvious mounting hole places and you just need to run the drill through the middle of the raised part. Quick rub down, prime,paint,laquer, job done :thumbup:
