hi guys,

firstly let me say i see there was a group buy on these about a year ago at a much lower price but this is the best prices i could get so its an option.

i have been looking into getting myself a carbon or kevlar spark plug cover for my h22. although as with most parts these seem relitivly easy to get for most hondas but the h22 is hard to find part for. so in my efforts to find one i found a well known, reputable carbon/kevlar specialist who sell online. now i have had some conversations with him over the last few weeks and we have eventually got confirmed prices. he has offered to do me a mixed box of covers for H, B, K & F series covers in;

Plain Weave Carbon,
Kevlar,
red kevlar,
yellow kevlar
or
blue Kevlar finishes.

he says his prices are resonable so hasnt given me much off but has done a pretty good shippin deal. idealy im looking for 20-30 pieces on the first order. was wondering if anyone was interested.

his terms are payment before production so i would be lookin for payment by cheque of paypal prior to order. from then he is quoting 2-2.5 weeks to produce. then shipping time. he has not added any allowance for duties as he says its never a problem he has had before. so any duties would be payable over and above the stated price if they were to be caught by customs.

from my rough figure if we get 20-30 covers over the 4 engine series you will be looking at paying (im giving a price in dollars as with the current financial climate you have no idea what the exchange rate will be at the time of order. so when i get numbers we need i we will work out an exchange rate that is available at the time or for paypal people im sure you can transfer in dollars to me so maby thats an option)

$89 (carbon) add $3 for kevlar finishes + P&P within the uk. (im based in central scotland)if you dont want to collect at a show or meet.

its worth mentioning i have no idea if thats good or bad for one of these for the h22 it seems reasonable from what i see. im just offering an option to you if anyone is interested. the seller says ", all of our products are pure dry carbon fiber, so no cheap fiberglass and no cheap resins are used in production, they are highest quality material we can produce with" so this should explaint he pricing.

i can also offer the cover for the B series (civic and teg) at the same price as h22. and the F series (s2000) & K Series (EP3 & DC 5) for $104 add $4 for kavlarfinishes again this is subject to P&P within the uk. (im based in central scotland)if you dont want to collect at a show or meet.

thanks for reading and let me know if your interested.

Well, if he's using proper only carbon fibre on these, that would explain the price and it should be nice quality and good looking.

In the current climate, the exchange rate makes this about £64 a piece, more for the other series engines.

payment will be when we get the appropriate numbers together. if we dont get the 21-30 we need i will e-mail the seller get an updated price for less units and see who wants to go ahead still.
