    RS2 Grille Clips - potential group buy

    Thanks to work from S2dude we've found a company that would be able to make RS2 grille clips.

    They will cost more than a standard OEM clip due to the size of the runs available to the clips.

    Sets would be sold complete only at 4 top 3 bottom.

    What i need to do is gauge how many people would buy a set of clips for the RS2 grille?

                It's going to depend on how many we make in a batch, the more in a batch the lower the price.

                S2dude is waiting for the prototypes to take pics off.

                Parts Daddy what was the price of the clips before they went out of production?

                  I've found www.vagparts.com to have the best price on the rs2 grilles.

                        Yes I would take a set or two, some for now and some for spares.

                          Mmm....

                          If only they were still manufactured and not extinct
                          One things for sure.....they wont be that cheap!

                          This is because

                          1// they are a very complex shape
                          and
                          2// labour intensive to make without machine tooling (very very expensive to make like £000's)
                          3// we are only getting a small (in manufacturing terms) run made (if enough interest)

                          Price to be confirmed

                              i dont know, the clips are awfully expensive and i dont know if people will pay the price.
                              S2dude is due to get the mock ups soon so bare with us.
