No bids!!

Even with crummy exchange rates, it's worth it.

Congrats! I posted it last night. More the merrier. If you only knew how sought-after this thing was only recently...

Cheers,

Doesn't look like it will ship to US. Sent a message earlier but nothing back yet. Will translate and try again later.

Thanks for bringing it to our attention. I am sure it is a high quality part but I am not sure what makes this so exciting?

JH, I thought everyone had written that part off after another user promised and failed to deliver a knockoff.

Air, either bid or don't. Money talks. The Germans are famously bureaucratic. You just have to remind the vendor Startec doesn't have a USA distributor now and ask them what is their company's procedure for these situations...

Jamesy, StarTec was a quality builder of parts for our cars. The other Limiteds did not get a chance to put an SRT tail on their backsides like you. That and the part is (in Crossfire terms) reasonably priced.

The user was written off... but the authentic pieces never were. They were just deemed unobtainable and out-of-production by Startech. ST components are not at all unlike vintage Saleen kits and wheels for Mustangs... ugly to some, but no doubt collectible and the knockoffs never come close.

As with most of the Startech pieces, they're forgotten until a real live American that we know and love posts photos... normally MAYAman. Search for any of his old threads and eventually, the thread has its share of folks drooling over the obsolete pieces.

I can assure you, if a cash of front lips from Startech became available, folks would fly to Germany to pick one up. Put myself in that list... But I eventually convinced myself they'd never become available, and bought the SRT-6 fascia.

All the best,

--John

"no.We only ship to and sell to the following countries: Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Spain, France, Ireland, Italy, Luxemburg, The Netherlands, Austria, Portugal, Finland, Sweden and Great Britain.

Kind regards

CRD Store"

Are there any euro crossfire members that offer mule services?

Sent a message saying if they had no offers I am still interested if they will ship but looks like someone just put a bid in. My ultimate goal was not to make a knock off but a 1pc spoiler with that piece integrated. It looks great stuck on but a nice smooth 1pc specially in carbon would be dreamy.

I won one of the bids of this seller and I've received my spoiler :-) It cost 88 €, all included (about 125 $)

I haven't painted it yet, but I think it'll look gorgeous :-D

I think they have more items left, and I haven't got much free time at all, but I offer my self to receive and send them to you. Maybe the next time I need any piece from the USA and you could make me the favor then :-)

Grats! Might take you up on that offer, no shipping to the US is the only thing that stopped me. Post some pics when you get it all done

I am flying to Germany in a few weeks. I will be in the Frankfurt area of Sieheim at the Lufthansa training center. I wonder if I could get them to ship or drop off there? Anyone speak German?

Sure I'll post pics as soon as it's done. I was waiting untill I receive my CTD License Plate Holder to mount all together but I'm having serious problems with CTD :-( so maybe the Plate Holder will have to wait ...

PM me if you want to order the Spoiler to see how can we do it.

I'm not really into the carbon mood and 1.000 € it's a lot!!! For a bit more I would rather go for a Lambo doors solution

Maybe you can send the order to the hotel you'll be in Frankfurt so you can pick the item when you arrive. Talk to the hotel staff if you have already made the reservation, maybe they can help you :-)

I might have to contact one of out Brit friends and see if he can send it to me. I think however this ne only fits the coupe.

Very busy year, so it wasn't untill this week that I mounted the spolier. This is a quick pic I took yesterday after I picked up it from garage. I'll take some new pics this weekend :-)



One thing for sure is that it decreases rear visibility when spolier is spread out, like a 25% of the normal visibility. But I think it's worth it.
