i want to throw this out there. is there any 2k2xd owners out there looking to have f/g-c/f interoir trim pieces made? i have been talking to Spike, on xd, and he might be able to get it done. this is the first step. nothing is in writing, yet. i am just wondering if anyone would be interested in this.
thanks

edit: i was unaware of the fitment of the other years. thanks for the correction on this.
so this will be for 01-03 model elantra's

dude I'm sorry but I'm tired of the 2k2xd thing said parts that you are talking about would fit 01-03 and hell I'm sure the would also fit 04-05 as long as the interior pieces are about the same. Anyways the point is if it fits an 02 it fits an 01 and 03.

no offense dude, but u sure do propose a ton of ideas to us "to see whos interested"... of course a lot of us are interested, why not just make the **** then bring it to us? so many ideas are thrown around then nothings ever done about it...


sorry, just tired of seeing people's interest sparked and hopes get up, then there isnt **** to show for it.

2loud2k2xd,
Show all when/if this happens. Many here are sceptical. (including me) If this product works out for you, all will cheer, and good on you and SPIKE. I hope the price is right and you get your product.

And many "cheap bastards" such as me will spend the cash IF the product has promise.

Again, if this is a reality, then good on yourself and SPIKE. I will be getting with carbonman in the near future for different items. Team elantraxd effort would be best for all.

I appreciate that you're trying to help the Hyundai aftermarket, but so far you haven't delivered anything yet. Why promise and work on so many different things when you haven't gotten a single thing done yet? Each week I see you post something about "I'll check my supplier to find out the cost" or "I'll take pictures so you all can see". Most of that hardly ever happens and when we do get a picture it's some blurred image of something that's barely in the 1st stages of production. You don't have a single thing made for the XD so far.

spike, sounds GREAT. deffinately count me in. keep me informed as to the $$ factor. high ball park figure? maby 1000-1700.00? thats still in my $ range. alittle more, no problem. i will always take care of ppl who take care of me. you are the man.

did you say the price for painted interior pieces was 200.00. DAMN, thats a deal. i might send you items,ie: body-kit, wiper arms, cowl, and a few other things. ill pm u with deffinate things.
see its good to have great connects in this market.

Don't make yourself look as if you're some kind of Hyundai savior. You have yet to make ONE single bolt-on part for an XD, not even eyelids which would probably be the easiest to make out of all the "parts" that you're "working" on. You're trying to sell XD fenders for $650 when you've never made a single XD fender before? There will be people willing to pay for your stuff if you actually manufacturer them. You're just some regular Joe Schmo like the rest of us. Don't make yourself out to be some manufacturer when all you're doing is getting a body shop to make you a custom fender. I live in Southern California, if I wanted to go through the hassle of going custom there are plenty of shops that could do the same thing for me. You don't own a single shop, be it a body shop, machine shop, etc but yet you always talking about making this and making that. If you don't think you're gonna make money from Hyundai owners, then keep getting your shops to make products for your Lexus. Don't waste any of time on here. You're not doing us any good by offering parts that have yet to be made or will never be made.

For example, I know Carbonman's business is very small, if you even want to call it a business, or a side job, but at least he has the products to back up his claim. Maybe if you showed some credibility people would be willing to buy from you. If Carbonman were to say "I have carbon fiber fenders for $1,000", I know there would be a few of us that would jump on that (despite the price) because we know that he delivers, unlike you. Im tired of your empty promises. Even TNT4ME has done more than you, and at least he doesn't try to come off as being a manufacturer of these items.

Thanks man :)
Why should I get a set of XD fenders hack into them, and post them here when I have my fenders and it is the same concept? that is the dumbest statement that I have heard out of anyone. Also I am the manufacturer of them I was in the shop sanding and etc..so yeah call me a manufacturer.

Hmm what is MOJOS its an actual shop, has a business address building etc?
So what would you call it, would you like to call the owner and talk to him about custom fenders? his name is Jerry and I will get the number and post it. Also my cell is in my sig so....


First, you say you're the manufacturer because you're in the shop sanding and etc. Now you claim that MOJOS is an actual shop and if I want to find out whether or not it's real, I have to call some guy name Jerry and talk to him about custom fenders? A minute ago weren't you the manufacturer? Weren't you the one sanding the fenders? Why the hell would I need to speak with Jerry if you're the manufacturer?

I'm not saying that manufacturing is an easy or cheap process. But basically what you are is just a customer of some body shop who's trying to send business their way. You say that you're doing custom work, well anyone can get custom work done at a reputable shop, especially if they live in an area that's populated with tuners. Again, if I wanted custom work done I have a limitless option of places to go to here in Southern California, if I had that kind of money. Why do any of us need to go through you or MOJOS just to get some hacked fenders?

Because of the high cost of going custom, many of us are looking for bolt on, OEM-fit parts. Even if it was on the pricey end, because of the scarcity of hyundai aftermarket parts, there are some of us willing to pay a bit extra. We know we won't be able to get a set of fenders as cheap as the Honda guys. Unless you're going to be mass producing or producing just a small batch of something, why even offer to make these items? If it's going to be custom work anyway I don't need to go through you. The last thing I want is to pay some middleman, which is basically what you are.

I don't know what kind of issues you have with Carbonman. I've done business with him before, and though it took a bit of time, in the end he delivered what he originally promised. Although he's only making simple products, at least he has made items in the past to back it up. People have actually bought from him before. You? I haven't seen you sell a single thing you've made and the only person that's bought into your idea is someone who barely knows anything about the XD besides calling it a 2k2xd.

Before any group buy is made, it must be APPROVED by SuperGLS, the acting admin. This group buy has not been approved so nothing is going to happen on THIS site until - if ever - it is approved. This is not a thread to argue about SPIKE (though we may want to) or Carbonman, or anyone else, so talking about interior pieces... Fine. How to make them... Fine. How much something like that might cost... Fine. Trying to organize one here and now... NOT FINE. So get back to the stuff that is OK or this puppy is lizzocked and it can be *****ed about in some other lame Flame thread about how you hate me.

P.S. Craig, you my boy.
