3 from FB and 3 from NICO...but we're at 25 total so really we only need one more person to confirm their details and we can proceed as we only need 20 people. Or maybe SoulFunction can just work with 19 lol.

Yep. We're good, I put out a message to SoulFunction to see how they want this info and I'll get it sent to them today. Then it's just a waiting game while they contact everyone, get the initial payments and actually produce the bar.

That can be had from the first post, it'll look like the Y50 bar.

I have told SoulFunction to come in here and post up though with updates as they progress through the process.

Here's a little update. My plan is to check in with SF every 10 or so days. This project should go quicker and more smoothly than the Y50 project which was one of their first I guess.

We expect to have the schedule finalized within 2 weeks and will be sending out the first official communication to the group buy members at that time.

Thanks!
Just got that email from SF today. It'll take time but the ball is definitely rolling. Look for a contact email in 2 weeks or so.

I know we're all antsy but these things take time.

Just thought about something:

Having seen the Y50 strut bar, it is possible to ask them to design the Y51 bar in such a way that the engine cover doesn't have to be cut in any way? It's early enough in the process that I'd figured it was worth at least asking.
