Thank you and hope to hear back!

[kubiache]

OMG!!! that's the design I've been talking about!

You might want to PM GrandAmGuru so there's no issues with plugging your company though, since we do have sponsors.

[mFX]

Thank you for the heads up! A PM has just been sent to GrandAmGuru.

As soon as we get things up and running products for previous generation Grand Ams are very possible. Please have your colleagues email us so we can get a "feel" for demand. Thank you!

What all do you have lined up for the grand am besides the hood?

[InspectorGAGT]

That hood is awesome...think I'll be picking that one up in the future! Great price too...anyway, you said you have a whole line of accessories for us. What else do you have in mind?

Fenders, bodykits, mirrors and various lighting depending on interest.

[InspectorGAGT]

*cough* CF tails *cough*

[2002GT]

How long til the fender? I am in need of 1 fender from my accident... and also could those mirros have the carbon fiber styling?

Not quite sure but if the interest is there it could be very soon. As for the mirrors we are toying with 'Bomex' style mirrors or JDM racing type mirrors made of carbon fiber.

[2002GT]

Thats cool... I will definately get the hood, and mirros...

I just don't know if I should go ahead and get the fender fixed or wait til you guys come out with one?

How about a wing that bolts to factory holes made of carbon fiber? even a low aluminum will work... i just wanna go all carbon fiber

[AaronGAGT]

Awesome! If everything comes through, I think I'll be a happy man

[SikMindz]

:D

[2002GT]

I'm down... Hood, Mirrors, Fenders... and if you ever make a wing I'm down for that too... Thanks and good luck

/\ What they said!! :thumbs: ;)

[2002GT]

CF Tails... you guys a re tempting... so my set-up willl bee

CF Hood, CF Mirrors, CF Wing, CF Dash Kit, CF Overlays, CF Tails, 19'z Gunmetal or Black w/ Polished Lips.... OH! So Tempting, lol... Anyone wanna buy 18z?!?! lol

[eric99gt]

we all know what we want....clear headlights.

[PACE]

Projector headlights!

BTW, that hood is awesome!

[jordanGT]

if you guys do clear headlights (new mold without the gay amber corner), you've got a definite buyer right here.

[redfox]

Can someone Say URBN... It's URBN under a different name...has to be. Same hood they were gonna release as well as the BOMEX mirrors. lol

[lightningGA]

SWEET....I can't wait to see more products.....that hood is sick.....I'm looking into getting a C/F hood by spring....so many choices!!!

Mirrors, headlights <------definitly interested!!!

[digitalballz]

That hood iz SICK! I want 1. :thumbs:

lol i was thinking the same thing but who knows?

[AEDHCCA]

I am interested in the hood...But Clear Headlights are a BIG thing over here and NO1 has came through yet. Companies talk about having interest in products that is one of, if not the most desired product for this car, a new lense to remove the amber corner.

[Dr_Kyle]

Definitely some clear headlights!

We got the same car, so you know i'm with you on your list. :thumbs:

What I would like to see as do many others are CF Tails and CF headlights with clear diffusers. And with the headlights, have two versions. Hid Projector and regular. Some of us have hids and would like a projector that works with the hid. I'm willing to spend the extra money to have this. Others don't have hid and don't feel the need for projector style. Also, CF mirrors with led turn signals.

Just some suggestions. Please make it happen. :D

If so, then that would explain sikmindz' "big grin" :D smiley. I do remember in his avatar, "stay tuned." Something like that. Maybe this is it??? :confused:

[AEDHCCA]

Clear Projectors would be nice HID or not my GSR Teg has Projectors from the factory without the HID and I can see much better at night in my Teg with stock bulbs than my GA with PIAA Superwhites

[FireItUpXTC]

<---- Huge interest in eventually...everything. right now money constrains me to the bodykit and hood!

[InspectorGAGT]

If and when "mFX" :D decides to make some tails...please, don't do any crazy business with them. RKSport had a great design up until they put those "atomic" or whatever things over the big lenses. Just give us 3 lenses, NO AMBER, and carbon fiber, and at least I for one would be happy as a pig in shyte.

[Vintalage]

Here's a new idea for some tailz. Use LEDs in an array configuration. Similar to what you see in the Caddy Deville, BMW 7 series, Infiniti G35, Range Rover, etc. Those aren't common in the aftermarket and it would set our cars apart from the rest with the "Altezza" stlye tailz. Badassgrandam will agree with me. :)

I would love to see that.

got a pic?

[Vintalage]

The way the Range Rover's tailz light up, the orange part is actually the brake lights and turn signal in one. The orange part turns red when you hit the brakes and when you put on the turn signal, there is a set of leds not being used by the brakes that is used for the signals. It lights up around the brake light area in a ring style.

(o) <----So using this illustration as an example, the o is the brake light and the ( ) around the o is the turn signals. Think of it like angel eyes. It looks cool when you see it.

Now there are a number of configurations you can use. I'm just using the Range Rover as an example.

sounds sweet......I'll have to keep an eye out for these on the road!!!

[Vintalage]

I think this thread should be made a Sticky.

[AaronGTR]

That's exactly the kind of hood I've been looking for. I might have a SD hood for sale soon.;)

[kong]

personally....i thiink it would be ideal to have amber as an option in tails....like *** tails...if u want the turn signal in amber, thats cool....as standard would be all red....i just like amber cuz w/ clear tails...and w/ leds...amber is way more brighter then red and will alert 'more' all the dummies out there driving so then know u are gonna take a turn or wutever......but whatever comes out is great....we need variety and the option to choose from a few aftermarket products for our cars......

[mFX]

Wow- Thank you all for the helpful responses!

Hopefully, we can incorporate all your comments and suggestions into our future product designs.

Our test car will hopefully be completed with various products within a month or so, so more pictures to come as the time nears.

[tetrasion]

I'm excited about the mirror's, I was just gonna buy the Bomex 3000gt mirror cause I know that they will fit. But carbon fiber, too sweet.

[KpazzH0ly]

Thank you and hope to hear back! So what's going on with this? It's a month later, still no shtuff....wtf

[Vintalage]

You will know soon. It is happening.

[PontiacGT2K]

[KpazzH0ly]

Yea can you post at least some kind of update?

[SikMindz]

Yup, my car has been in for the last two weeks and finalized products are being manufactured as we speak. Final ETA on everything should be another 2-4 weeks depending on if they hit any snags. My car is COMPLETELY stripped down right now. AIM me and I'd be more than happy to fill you in.

[KpazzH0ly]

alright thanks

[Rba007]

Guys, It looks SWEET!!!!! No "pinnochio" nose like other kits. Im definitely down for the hood, just have to wait for tax return time...

[mFX]

Sorry for the absence guys but we've been fairly busy working on a few projects. However, like Darren said the molds for all the products have been made and we will be shipping out the first batch of preorders within a month if all things go as expected. Other than that there are no new pictures because we are waiting for an actual production version of the products to be put on Darren's car (within the next 3-5 weeks) so you can see the real thing and not just the customized stock parts.

Please email us at mfxracing@hotmail.com if you have any questions regarding pictures, preordering, or anything pertaining to our products. Thank you for your interest and we'll try and stay in touch on a more regular basis as our schedule allows- if not you can contact Darren as he maintains a near daily contact with us.

[speak03]

I never thought this day would come!

[AaronGTR]

Good news. Can't wait to see what they look like.:thumbs:

[mFX]

Hey guys!

Until the end of the month we will be offering the hoods for $450 !

After that the price will be $675 again.

We will also be offering "colored" carbon fiber hoods as well; however, these will cost more. Please contact us for specifics.

Thanks!

mFXracing@hotmail.com

[TheShizzy]

so that hood deal will only be for the 99+ tho, currect? that sucks arse, cuz i want/need a CF hood sooooo bad!

[mFX]

Yes, as of now we only have accessories for the 1999 and up Grand Ams. However, we will be working on previous generation Grand Ams in the near future. Contact us for more details.

[Rba007]

Any chance of other specials down the road? I will definitely purchase a hood from you, But it will likely need to wait until spring. (My job is seasonal, im at school now).

[Vintalage]

A Christmas special would be great. And what would be the shipping and handling fee?

[mFX]

We may have other special down the road however, we do not have any definite plans as of now. We also will be offering package deals but more on that later.

Shipping and handling will vary depending on your location. Most likely shipping could be anywhere between $25-145. You can get a rough estimate from www.ups.com - the hoods will weigh in around ~20lbs and maintain about the same dimensions as your OEM hoods.

[tido_29]

so what would the total price in red/black be?

[lightningGA]

anything new on any of this stuff

[tido_29]

well i have tried to order from them but its so hard now.. I dont even know if my order went through. :( I believe they were just waiting on the hoods to arrive to ship them out.
