Gents,

Pole 2 Flag Racing is offering a Group Buy for the front and rear pre-preg (Dry) carbon for $1600/pair. This is a bolt on mod to replace the oem steel bumpers.
The benefits of this mod are not only losing +40lbs. of weight at the far end of the car but also quicken the handling of the car due to a lowered Polar Moment.

You should be able to feel the before and after difference quickly and you should corner balance your car if you have coil overs.
Price per lbs saved is the highest than any other carbon parts on the NSX market and a lighter car is always a faster car.:wink: This mod works for you ALL the time, the down side is you can't see the cool carbon weave easily once its installed.

The front bumper will NOT have the mounting tabs for the front two horns as the NSX has a 3rd horn next to the cruise control box. If you want the lic. plate mounting tabs, its $50 extra.

*Greg TT's car has the Taitac diffuser. FYI, our rear bumper have attachments to bolt on to this diffuser.
We use aerospace h/w ie. nuts and bolts and nutplates of imperial units as metric is hard to get thus more expensive. the tolerances on these are a lot tighter fit than automotive so don't be alarmed if the bolt "seems too tight" to fit.

There are a couple threads about this below and please visit our website www.pole2flagracing.com for more detail.

If you are interested, please make a non-refundable deposit of $160 from your bank to our bank without any processing fees.
We use Well Fargo and the account# is 3787753916, use: [email protected] as the email, use my name Timothy Chen if required or Pole 2 Flag Racing LLC.
According to WF, this is not a wire transfer otherwise it would cost $35. This is like a ACH transfer so the charge is zero from WF and something like 30 cents of other banks. We want you to be able to by-pass the 3% Paypal fee and this is the best way for now or you can send us a check.

There was a question regarding the aerospace hardware we use on the bumpers...they are Imperial units not OEM Metric. Metric are hard to find and they are quite expensive. We use sizes closest to the oem size in AN not metric so it can self-center easier like the oem of the mounting brackets.
 
Gents,
Bumpers are ready to ship later this week. Please complete your payment asap.
Please make sure all your info is current.

If you ordered two bumpers, the shipping is $40.
If you ordered one bumper, the shipping is $25.
If you are in Calif, please add 8% sales tax.

Bank to Bank transfer has no fees and its quick, safe and hassle free unlike Paypal.

Maomaonsx, PM sent again. plz respond.
 
Cambo,
DHL is what we use as USPS won't ship it since its too long.
I don't have your postal code but you can look up dhl yourself and go to Get Rate and Time Quote link. Package size should be 58"x14"x8" and what ever insurance you want to put on it.
 
new rear lic plate mold

We made a new lic plate mold for the rear to improve the aesthetics of the bumper for the new batch we're making so it will not only be light weight and functional but as well as beautiful as the front bumper. Its really too bad you can't see this part once its installed.

George,
I couldn't reach you by PM and your bumpers are done and labeled with your name. Please honor the transaction.
You can either pay thru Paypal but add the 3% fee or send us a check or do a bank-to-bank transfer which is free of charge.
Plz let us know what you decide.
Thx much
Tim
 
For the rear bumper only do you have the weight difference between your one and an aluminium one like the STMPO version?
 
Sorry Scammy. I don't know the difference. FWIW, we have a ProCar frt alum beam and it wt. 8lb. compare to our carbon frt bumper at 3.25lbs. If the math doesn't work out for this part, we will make other dry carbon parts to save weight.
 
but...but...but...you can't even see it once its installed! no one can feel it either except the driver. 40+lbs saved at the ends is a lot for PMI. cost saving per pound is the highest compare to other pre preg parts on Prime. We can't beat them using high tech but we can get close using better physics.
