Skid plate? Diff plate?

Hey all,
I contacted Paul over at Primitive since I was planning on ordering a skid plate and Will's purchase reminded me of that
turns out, he'll give discounts
Here are the prices:
Your 1/8" plates are $235 + $15(Filter/Drain hole) + $18(After market headers) + shipping. Add $15 to get our rear "Up Armor" that doubles the bottom thickness to a full 1/4" on the rear plate and adds up-turned front and rear lip to the rear diff cover (nice touch and beefy at low weight-under 2 lbs total!) Add $45 if you want the sweet new stinger tail added to the front plate that gets the area under the sump to 1/4" and extends back to front part of tranny.
We do currently offer $20 off each plate for orders of 3-5 plates and $25 off orders of 6-9 plates.
I'm looking at the "Full Body Armor (Street) 1/8" Front/Rear" which is $235 plus the little addons. Anyone else interested?
List of people buying:
Julian - Full Body Armor (Street) 1/8" Front/Rear($235), filter/drain hole($15), after market headers($18), stinger($45), Up Armor($15)
Gabe - WRX 3/16" Rear Skidplate($95)
Will - Street Armor: 1/8" front - 1/8" mini rear($270), filter/drain hole($15), after market headers($18), stinger($45), Up Armor($15)

Hey Will, you ever going to do headers?
I threw a list up on the first post of what people want.

Not sure but it won't be anytime soon b/c I will need a retune. Headers will sit in a nice box hiding their prettiness until I decide on something.

The reason I ask is if you are ever going to do headers, you're going to want to get the "header" version. It adds a couple of bucks.

Where is that version? I didn't see that on the website.
EDIT: Nevermind...I see it under the WRX/STi for $18 option. I don't think it will be an issue with mine but can you ask if that is an option for the forester, too? If so, I will get that just in case
...so add the stinger and aftermarket headers to mine...thanks!

Lemme crunch some numericals. I may very well be in for a plate.

I just e-mailed him about your setup Will, I'll let you know what he says
UpArmor:
Add $15 to get our rear "Up Armor" that doubles the bottom thickness to a full 1/4" on the rear plate and adds up-turned front and rear lip to the rear diff cover (nice touch and beefy at low weight-under 2 lbs total!)
Colin: Sounds good, just let me know

Ok, added to your order. BTW, I heard back from Paul and he said you did need the header mod, even though it was not listed on the site.
BTW, since this is a group order, it looks like we're going to save quite a bit on shipping!

So where are they all being shipped to and how much is shipping? Also, how much are we saving?
Mine looks to be $363 before discounts and shipping...is there tax, too?

We can have them shipped to my house and then I can give them out either at meets or a half way point. No tax as he's in OR.
lol, you need to reread my first post! The UpArmor thing and the savings are in it!
We do currently offer $20 off each plate for orders of 3-5 plates and $25 off orders of 6-9 plates.
He quotes shipped to my door for my order as $369.98. This doesn't include any discounts and the group shipping should drop that a good bit.

In regards to the shipping, would it save to have the group buy shipped to one address? I'd certainly be willing to cost-save that way.

lol, you and Will need to read my posts! Yes, we would save a bunch if we ship to one address. I'm perfectly willing to take on that responsibility and Paul prefers that anyway since it makes it easier on him.

Hurry up already!
BTW, congrats on selling the S4...it was a very sweet ride and will be missed, though.

I was a little confused on discount per plate...so if I got a front skid plate and rear diff plate that would be discount for each or discount total for order...but since it is the full armor kit which is already discounted so I didn't know how much discount for that...did that make sense?

Yes
Not sure, we'll find out. Let's just say the discount will be less than what we're looking at paying alone, haha.
TRANS4M: No real deadline. I'd like to get this ordered by next Wednesday if I could though.
