mk1steve, I've read your PM, and feel that responding here would be more appropriate. I merely asked if someone would post the prices. It seems better than a whole lot of people phoning up and asking the same question, and wasting the suppliers time when they could be working. The last line of my post also reads: Perhaps I should have put a question mark at the end, but it still reads might. Nowhere in my post does it say that a group has been, or will be, organised. You are the only one that has read that into it. Other people have then expressed an interest in a group buy. I can still see nothing in my post to warrant you having a go at me. You mention in your PM business opportunities that you have. If this is a startup company that can't yet afford to discount it's products, or is a company that just doesn't want the hassle, then merely say so, and state your/their price. If it's reasonable, people will still buy. In fact, if it's a new company, most people will be keen to help it succeed. I know I would, if they handled themselves professionaly. However, in my experience, there is no quicker way to lose customers than to react angrily in public. Because of that, you have lost mk1g60turbo's order, and mine. I hope that clears up my post, and I wish you all the best with your opportunities. You have apologised in your pm, so let's just draw a line under this, and move on.
Had an email saying i should get a price/materials list in a few days from dave. Only mentions carbon kevlar so i'm hoping he also does Fiberglass?
Great as they should be a lot cheaper than the carbon stuff so right up my street for my budget if i go for doors as well (god know's how much they will be but crosses fingers).
Had a reply today: Unfortunatly i can't commit to make anything untill May because i am very buisy with my new job and uni commitments. I will obviously let you know it this situation changes. However i can meet you to disscuss any queries you may have closer to the time before any money changes hands. Just to make sure you know what you are getting and to prevent any dissagrements. Attached is a price list of the pannels for which i currently have or are developing molds for. Hope this answers any questions you may have had, if not don't hesitate to let me know.

I will not sell these doors in any material unless they are intended for motor sport use and the car is fitted with a full roll cage including door bars, this is for your safety and my peace of mind.

we do have mk2 moulds for wings and a bonnet and i believe a tailgate mould is being made as we speak
So still cheaper to get the parts from smithanddeakin.co.uk or from motorsportparts.co.uk so long as you don't want carbon
A bit late but try this... http://www.pesch.cz/vw/vw-golf-ii Very cost effective! 2100 cena = around 90 euros. Excellent quality also.
thread from the dead... wonder if thats for a pair of doors or each side? translated it ...Door-3 door. few left + right. not the original handle. approx 4.5 kg piece
