MyProjectCars had offered $195 a set for five or more sets and they also wanted one payment and one shipping location. Because of that, I went to Revozport. I just now sent a note back to MPC to see if they could match or get close to Revozport's price as well as let us transact individually with the items sent to different addresses. I'll keep you guys informed.

And yes, the covers are the same between the M5 and M6. I checked realoem.com and they have the same part numbers.

MPC just replied saying they can't match the price. I asked what price can they do and if they can accept individual payment/shipping.

IMHO....i believe spending an extra 50 for quality is worth it...too bad we have too many mix results about who makes the better fitting covers....where do we go from here ???


P.S. thanks for gathering all this info for us.

I know, it's sort of a gamble with either company. I do know that snikt21 had the MPC pieces and he said they looked good and fit good. But if MPC won't agree to do individual payment/shipping then I don't think I want to use them even though I don't mind paying $200.

I don't really mind collecting the funds and then deal with sending out the items to you guys but I'm sure you guys would feel more comfortable dealing directly with the vendor.

Okay, MPC said they can do $190 shipped with individual payment/shipping.

What do you guys want to do?

I'm also waiting to hear back on how many they have in stock and what the approx shipping time is to the US.

Another real-time update. They have about 6 sets in stock right now but of course, quantities will change as time goes by. Shipping time is about 1 week from Hong Kong to US and they won't put a time limit on this group buy.

So Revozport or MyProjectCars?

In order to make the group buy work I will go with either option if there is a strong preference of the group. Personally I like the idea of direct billing and shipping simply from the point of view that if I am unhappy with them it will be easier to deal directly with any warranty issue. Please let me know by PM when this goes ahead just in case I miss the thread...I'm lookimg for a black CF set.

Thanks!
