And now of course for the fine print.......


All of our products are included in this great deal - not only the items listed - so if you are looking around for a front end, or other parts not listed, give me a pm and I can quote you a great price on what you are looking for!

Some select items are kept in stock and ready to ship, while most of our products are built to order.
Please give me a call or pm for availability.
Unfortunately we are not able to reduce our production times on this Group Purchase (like what we have done in the past) due to our current workload.
Production times on non stocked items is currently at 5-6 weeks from the date of order prior to shipping.

I am sorry, but we do not accept paypal or internet orders.

To better help our customers, we accept phone orders only - this allows us to answer any questions in regards to product, shipping costs, production times, etc.
Please give us a call - we are available Monday thru Friday, 8am to 4pm CST at 630.543.0232.
We do accept Visa, Mastercard and Discover by phone.
Or, if you prefer, you can call in your order and follow up by mailing in a check or money order for payment. We will give you an order number at that time to ensure your payment is applied to your order when mailing it in.

Shipping and Crating charges are additional. Please send me a pm or give us a call with your location and parts you are interested in, so we can give you information in regards to these costs.

I am very sorry, but we are also unable to give GP pricing or discount on any products we order direct from a supplier - such as Lexan, Struts, Rails.....


This does it for our Fiberglass parts...please see below for an additional offer and some great savings on our Performance parts!!

Fiberbucks are our way of giving back to our customers.
Every purchase made through our Performance Store earns a 5% rebate of the amount purchased in Fiberbucks....which can be used either towards your purchase on this Group Purchase - giving you an even sweeter deal on your fiberglass.
Or you can hang on to this rebate for up to a year to use when you're ready - the choice is yours.


Yep, the fine print on this offer...come on! You know there is always something!

Now, you cannot order a hood through the Performance Store to earn an additional discount towards the GP - the purchase is for Performance Products ONLY.
And this discount only applies if a purchase is made through our Performance Store either at the time of the fiberglass order or prior to.




Thanks guys for requesting this Group Purchase!!!

so the cost of hood with tax is $665.73, and shipping is $160 on average. It says in her post they charge a boxing/packaging fee. Im guessing that about $850-$875 will get it to my door? Does this sound about right?

Just curious... Did you guys order the hood recommended hood struts as well? I didn't see any mention of that in any of your posts with estimates.

vfntech
04-11-2011, 03:50 PM
We do carry the struts here as well...but because we do not make these in house...instead purchasing them through a supplier...they are reg. price. These are $40.00 for the pair.

Jeanie,

I ordered my WSQ yesterday. I talked to Denise (i think) Wednesday but didnt get to place my order till Thursday. I spoke with a guy but dont recall his name. He was nice though. I was wondering how many of the WSQ hoods you sold on this group purchase. When will they be available for internet sale? I was told by the gentleman who took my order that for now, this was an LS1Tech sale only and that the hood would be released sometime in the future. Are the "feeler group" for this hood? Is there a chance that it will not go into production? I only ask because there are so many common accessories for these cars that it would be nice to be one of the few who actually have a unique part. Sorry for the length but I'm sure you can tell, I am excited about this hood..http://images.ibsrv.net/ibsrv/res/src:www.ls1tech.com/get/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_nod.gif

So are they available and how long do I have to wait now????

I would estimate that we've sold about 8-9 at this point with this offer. You guys did get first dibs on this hood :D But we do expect to release it to the public shortly. Although it would have been cool to have it available as a limited time release...we just wouldn't be able to justify this awesome looking mold sitting around collecting dust

WSQ is available now.
Unfortunately I can no longer honor the GP pricing...BUT Tech members do get a good discount on parts to begin with. :D Puts the price of the WSQ bolt on at $640.00....instead of retail of $695.00.

We are building these to order...currently working with a 4-5 week production time.

Some of you guys on the GP will be receiving your WSQ's either by the end of this week...or sometime next. :D
There will be another batch sent out within the next week or so.

We would love some feedback when you guys get your hoods.

Thanks!!

Got my WSQ hood in last night got it bolted on today. It is a little thick in all the places I was told it would be and I will need to slot my mounts just a little to bring the hood forward, so all in all its awesome. It looks so mean from the front view, now I can barely wait to hit the car with some new paint. Also if anyone wants to keep the release latch looking stock, we just v notched the handle, bent it down straight, and tack welded the notch. It clears everything and still retains factory look and feel.

Thanks so much to everyone at VFN and also to Qcon,

Got my hood on Wednesday, pulled it out of the box and man does it look awesome!
I just wanted to say thank you to everyone at VFN for their part in producing this hood.
It truely is better than it looks in the pictures. The quality of the hood is amazing, it's not too heavy, and the attn to detail is awesome. Not to mention the customer service being very good as well. I was contacted immediately before the hood was shipped to determine whether the vents should be open or closed, and to also be walked thru step by step on how to install and adjust the hood. Also to be let know I was the first person to be recieving the hood. :D:D:D I recieved it on WED. MORNING... and am glad to say I was very happy with my purchase thru VFN. Thank You All.

As for the fitment, I will not know first hand b/c my car is currently getting a cage installed and therefore I don't have the car at my disosal. :(
I will post pics of before and after the paint process tho. ;)
I posted a few in my thread in the Appearance and Detailing section already!!! Feel free to check them out!

To be honest, not sure. Although I do know they were considering another group buy for the WSQ within the next few weeks. This should include everything else as well.
If you wished to check back with me in a couple of weeks...I should have some better information in regards to this.

In the meantime, if you can't wait that long...keep in mind that we do give Tech members a discount off our fiberglass products everyday :)
Not as big of a discount as the GP, but every bit helps.

Mounted my wsq yesterday. Pictures really don't do it justice. Fitment was superb... may have some issues with the height above the passenger headlamp(so close to perfection. ). But ill leave it to the paint guy before I make a final decision. Mounting without drilling holes in the hood requires modifying the hinges and hood latch. Overall it was super easy to put on. Another thing that pictures haven't shown well yet is just how tall the cowl is. Its easily more than an inch taller than my stock ws6 was.

Also many people were wondering if mti or slp lids would rub.... mine does but just barely, I have an mti.

The WS6 hood will serve its purpose and give me a meaner look than the flat panzy hood.

group purchase saves you about 10%, regular cost on the WSQ is $699 give or take a few bucks (depends on material cost at time of release) I paid $635 for mine including the boxing fee. it was $109.26 to ship with AAA Cooper from VFN to the AAA Cooper distribution center where I picked it up myself. That saved me $80 on shipping. All together I paid less than $750 to put the hood on my car. Not a bad deal at all, if you ask me....

My hood came in today. We got it on and I'll to say the fitment of the hood is second to non well besides the factory hood maybe. Which didn't line up to well to begin with. We got it bolted on and for not being adjusted at all it was damn near perfect. The back corners are alittle high and the front driver side aswell which will be fixed tommarow we just ran out of daylight. Thanks again Jeanie and everyone at VFN for the superior work and customer service. Here are some pictures with a crappy cell phone the first time we shut the hood.

Thx! Well I can't personnally attest to the hands on part of the install. Ormondo and Steve of Vfn pretty much guided me from finish till end. On every step of what they were gonna do, and what they had to do. And it seemed like a pretty straight foward install. They made it look easy.lol All I can say is every car is gonna be different and mine had some minor flaws of it's own. Since the pros installed it they made the tweaks that were unique to my ride and got it done. For the most part just follow the instructions that they give and or the youtube video they mentioned and you'll be good. I can't be more then happier speechless quite frankly.:D

Got my hood in Friday and it looks great. The shipping company did a hell of a job trying to destroy it because the box looked like it had been run over by the truck... twice. Finished opening it up(because the box was partially torn open across the entire bottom) to find the hood in good shape which was a very pleasant surprise. The box looked so bad I considered sending it back without opening it at all. I figured there was no way the hood wasn't cracked.

Thanks to VFN for an awesome hood and even better packaging!

What a rollercoaster of a ride your hood had!! Very sorry about that - actually, going to show this to the driver of the company when he comes into the office for a pickup today...so he can pass this information along for us..and make them aware of the situation.

Very glad it arrived safely! ~

Thank YOU very much!!

Does the shipping company let me know when they are shipping the hood?
Thanks

08-05-2011, 03:14 PM
We can upon request...otherwise, we do forward the freight carrier your number so that they can contact you once it arrives at the destination terminal. At that point, they will call to schedule a delivery appointment and give you exact costs on freight.

Picked up our Sunoco hood at the terminal today. Fit is great for an aftermarket hood; much better than other brands I have used in the past! And it looks great on the car, really works well with the body lines!

We got the lower pressure struts as well and I would highly recommend them. there is a drastic difference in pressure from the originals. They are just right for the lighter hood.

Shipping was a bit more than expected. 35% more than expected to be exact.

Bottom line - Great looking and high quality hood! I will absolutely look to VFN for future fiberglass needs. Shame that shipping ended up being almost 40% of the hood's cost.

dang!....that almost doesnt seem worth it..

vfntech
08-08-2011, 11:50 AM
Very sorry about that. Unfortunately with gas costs being the way they are...it's taking a hit on the transit companies as well...they are adding a 30% fuel surcharge on top of the base price of freight to help offset these costs.
With this being said, we are selective about the carriers we use...there are many cheaper companies out there that can deliver the product, but are well known for damage issues and not paying out claims. To avoid these headaches...we tend to stick with the tried and true who generally move our freight without issues.
I am looking into an alternative to these companies however, it doesn't drop the freight costs by much - I'd say an average of $30-35.00 - but every bit helps these days...

Thanks!

Just got the call from the shipper. Should be delivered today or tomorrow. Ordered July12th, so exactly 4 weeks. Shipping was $167 from VFN to NE Indiana. More than I expected, but it is what it is, I suppose.

vfntech
08-09-2011, 11:10 AM
Will double check that for you. I do believe when the order was placed, we estimated right around $150.00 for freight...which I know this is a bit higher then that..but might be a case where that fuel surcharge comes in. Will know something in a little bit ~

GMMillwright
08-09-2011, 02:56 PM
I'm not really complaining. It costs what it costs. I will say the box arrived in pristine condition. Not a mark, ding or dent on it.

Still wanted to check into it tho...make sure things were lining up correctly with what our customers are being charged. Unfortunately in this case, it was a 30% fuel surcharge added in, that brought the costs up ~

this may have been answered already, but i'm seriously considering a WSQ hood, but i'm waiting for the next group purchase. is it possible to pick up the hood to avoid shipping costs? it wouldn't be too much of a drive and we have a truck..

I asked Jeanie about this when I ordered mine. She said it's possible, but you'll pay sales tax. My sister lives in Skokie, so I know that'd be a chunk of money.

i think just being that i live in illinois i would pay sales tax along with shipping. even so, sales tax alone would be much less than shipping and driving there combined.. probably less than half.

Would recommend picking it up - esp. if you live in Illinois. I don't have but one carrier that ships within the state and it is an expensive lane to ship to...talking about $170 to a business or terminal pickup or $260 to a home location...this would be regardless if you're all the way downstate or an hour or so away. ~

Rene's Rage - If shipped, there would be a $25.00 crating charge added to the price of the hood, bringing the total here, prior to freight to $470.00.
Hoods are too large dimensionally for shipping with UPS, instead requiring truck freight shipping instead. Generally we set truck freight up where our customers pay these costs upon arrival of your item.

We do recommend delivery into a business address or to do a terminal pickup, which we can help locate for you...doing one of these 2 options will save you about $70.00 that this particular carriers adds onto the base price of freight.

Average freight to a business or terminal will cost between $110-120.00 and to a home location between $180-190.00.


Pipeless - hope you had a fire extinguisher ready! sorry about your tv...would recommend subscribing to this thread...I'll post the next one up in this one - or at the very least a link to it.

Have a great weekend guys! ~

We generally don't use Fedex (sorry!). They have been known to break our parts on numerous occasions. For your area, we use AAA Cooper. Their terminal would be located at 4920 Hickory Hill Road in Memphis. This company is probably one of the best (and most reasonably priced) companies that we have used...if they would open up their lanes more, would use them just about everywhere ;)

Sounds good! We'll talk to you then.

Thanks!
