Guys, a show of hands in terms of interest please if you will. Tired of soggy stinking old carpet on your 80 series? Ingrained Pot Noodle and fag burns spoiling an other wise beautiful vehicle? Or just plain too heavy due to excessive pie consumption leading to a huge dent in the middle of the tailgate?
I am in the position to be able to offer laser profiled and black epoxy coated replacement decks. But the cost is dependant on quantity. These are NOT chequer plated, they are smooth finish with an incredibly tough black epoxy coating on them. I can't tell you a great deal more than that at the second.
This chap's work is extremely good. There's no bodge welding or rough edges etc. It's very very clean, tide and precise. I want a couple myself. I have asked if he could do them with cubby boxes let into them so all you do is cut out a part of the tailgate and drop these in to give you two little lockers as some people have already done. Well, one step at a time folks. I need to see if people are interested in the flat plates first, then we can talk about developments. He needs to see that there is a market. Currently most of his stuff is for inferior vehicles.
Here are the prices so far. Please do not ask if you can have orange stripes or one for a Colorado. We have to start somewhere first.
1 on its own would be £192 inc vat in textured black plus £10 p+p.
5 x would be £136 inc vat each plus £35 p+p shipped to one destination or £10 per unit mainland uk. Great if we all buy them and are going to Lincomb!
10 x would be £92 each plus £49 p+p shipped to one destination or £10 to your door
15x would be £79 postage as above
20 x would be £69 each - you get the idea. Basically £80 each delivered.
Personally I'd love two myself at £69 each. But I don't know that we'd get that many people interested. 10 is realistic maybe so £92 each plus £10 p&p.
Remember these are accurately cut and very tough finish. We can choose from 3mm aluminium or stainless. I don't know if we can mix and match or they all need to be one material at the second. It's taken a while to get this far if I am honest.
So, any takers? Form an orderly list. This is not a commitment to buy, it's a gauging of response. Some of you have done this already I know, but not everyone has the skill or material availability to do it. For those that have, I am sure you'd agree that £69 would be a very cheap option. If I can get a picture I will, but come on guys, it's a flat black piece of metal the same shape and size of your carpet. It will have holes in for fixings and all you'll need to do is drop some plastic inserts into the holes for some stainless screws. Again, I will get details on countersinking etc etc. OK?
1. Chris, I'd take 2 at the right price
