Let the N E W MacEwen White Faced Overlays GP begin, step inside...........

Ok, I got done talking w/ Ryan & it seems like he is down & ready for another GP. Since I plan on getting a 145 mph speedo I'm in plus 2 other people are in as well. So that makes 3.
Here are some news about it: he can't discount the bulbs this time around due to the fact that quanities are limited & that they are kinda scarce right now.
Same rules of the previous GP apply:
25 orders = 20% discount
15 orders = 15% discount
What I will need from you guys is to e-mail me & give me the run down of your car. Go to Ryan MacEwen's website and click on his order form and all the info that he has there is what I need then I will relay everything to him when we have enough people. Here is his website address: MacEwen's White Faced Overlays
If you have any more questions about price or anything, his website will have all the info. Also if you need to see more pictures of them I've got some on my website as well so just click on my signature link below. Hope we can get enough this time around again. Let the GP BEGIN!!!!!!!!!

Also by the way, I don't need your guys address or phone numbers. All the personal info that I need is your e-mail address & full name & the rest of the run down on your car.

I have no idea what the dealine will be. But to me it seems like it won't be for a while. I'll let him decide on when he wants to decide on the dealine date.

Here's the thing. I was kinda dissapointed w/ the blue b/c I didn't look on Ryan's web site to see what type of blue it was & it was a light blue but don't get me wrong it still looks bas as h e l l but just keep that in mind. Later

yeah, I looked on the site too and I like the blue, but still, red sounds pretty bad *** too. I think I'll just get a set of both if they're not too expensive

Just send me the info on your car & your full name & then I look up the part # & arrange everything into a nice organized spread sheet & send it to Ryan.
You pay Ryan not me, I'm just a liason of information for Ryan trying to get a 20% discount for me & everyone else.
Ryan will then get a hold of everyone as to when payment is due. Then the ball is basically in his court then. Sound good?

Geeeez, I feel like a moron. I forgot to also post that once Ryan gets a hold of everyone about the GP then the group purchase will be extended out for 2 more weeks so that any other person can join in on this and get the GP price. So I'll let ya guys know. I'm so happy that we reached out goal again w/ the this 2nd GP. Thanx guys

Mine look rude as hell at night time. This is where the little prep work of sanding the back of the needle down really helps. I spent about 5-10 minutes of each needle to make sure that it looks really good. When you paint the needle hold it up to the sun light so you can see the spots that you missed ot where the paint looks like it is not applied fully.
Thanx for the props on the arranging of the GP again. But also I thanx Ryan & you guys for making it happen.

To be honest I don't think so, just contact Ryan by e-mail today & he can hook you up. Just tell him that you want to get involved w/ the GP.
