If people want to put deposits to get on the group buy (but not pay the price they are right now i guess that is ok also as long as they know that if the buy doesn't hit 40 or 50 people then they are paying the slightly higher payment... help me out here guys. I am trying to make this simple for all.
I think the biggest issue is the "what if" on the price. I understand the whole " The more you buy the cheaper they are" but I think folks want to have a set price and call it a day.
Thats just my two cents.

license bracket should still work fine ...just need to drill one hole into it.
you can use whatever you want to bond /bolt/ rivet/screw them in....they by NO means need anything on the outside. You can use glue or double sided tape just the same and it will be as flush. They have really small rivets which is what i recommend and will change to. I just had to use what i had at the time to get them on and get pics. I can help you guys out there if you need it.

1. How much is the minimum deposit needed to secure a set of these in the 1st shipment?
2. When do we have the send the deposit to secure a set of these in the 1st shipment?
3. Would 3M double-sided tape work just as well as drilling holes for screws/rivets?
4. Is removal of the front bumper required for installation?
Let me know and I may send out a deposit as early as tommorow.

1. How much is the minimum deposit needed to secure a set of these in the 1st shipment?
A: Minimum is $100 deposit....thats fair i think...if not let me know.
2. When do we have the send the deposit to secure a set of these in the 1st shipment?
There are 5 payments (i believe the first 10 sets should be here asap) then 10-20 within a week or two after that). So if i receive the persons payment and they are in that first 10 they are golden.
3. Would 3M double-sided tape work just as well as drilling holes for screws/rivets?
Yes..i have used that to secure front lips and spoilers onto cars...its amazing stuff if you prep the surface with alky....you can even scuf it a tad.
4. Is removal of the front bumper required for installation?
It depends...you need to remove the mesh in the bumper but it should be doable if you just pull the undertray away...i didn't have a undertray ( take off stuff to often to worry about it and it doesn't really help anything anyway). So i could have done it without removeal but once the undertray is removed its 5-10 minutes to remove a bumper. Anyway if you pull the mesh then your golden..you can just sit infront of it and go to town. I just did it pulling it and setting the bumper upright....made install a snap!!
