re; brushed aluminum gauge rings

Hey guys,

Just took delivery of my MSP and heard of the famous DaveB gauge rings.
Please tell me someone has a set for sale or knows where they are readily available. Urgent buyer if it helps!

Sellers - send email to riccimike@sympatico.ca

Thanks in advance, hopefully i'll find a set......

unless you can find someone selling theirs, you wont' be able to find it. dave's not making them anymore.

well yes, that's exactly what i meant. i seriously doubt i'll find anyone willing to get rid of theirs, but just on the off chance that there is, i at least wanted to try.

lol people with rings should auction off them

lol, i dont even think i could part with mine for 100$. They complete the look of the car so much....it would look so naked.

I hear ya, man. They kick serious ass. DaveB should come back and sell them at $50 a piece.

Mr. Win

i still have mine in the orignal packaging mint condition worth 100s!!!

dave probably could scalp them at $150

why doesnt he make them anymore?

yeah, i literally missed the final group buy by a day. this was what i wanted to do first for the new msp, oh well. 100 would be a bit steep, but i'm sure he could sell them easily for 60-75. hell, i'd probably pay that much for them.

I will sell my brushed rings, perfect condition, for $100 shipped. If anybody is interested, PM me. I like them but I like a 100 dollar bill even more.

Note - these are the "2nd generation" rings he made with a tighter fit, so they're the good ones.

wow... this price gouging is ridiculous. i'll see if i can convince dave to make them again and sell them at their regular price so people won't get ripped off. i mean... $90 shipped for a set of rings? come on!!!

generix
03-24-2004, 12:42 AM
yeah, that would be ideal, but i didn't want to bug him about something that he wasn't doing for personal gain. i sent him an email about it a while back and got no response, so i figured i'd try to find some on my own.

tonkabui
03-24-2004, 12:45 AM
no, whatever you do... do not start sending him mass PM's. no emails either. i'll see what i can do. but don't everyone start bugging him about it. it gets overwhelming when you get 100 PM's and emails about gauge rings a day. so just everyone back off and i'll see what i can do.

BlueWolfCry

tonka why did he stop? amm?

well, that's exactly why i was here looking. after reading a few of his posts and stuff, i didn't want to add to the mess.

edit: in response to bluewolfcry

there are many reasons he stopped. i won't get into it. dave didn't divulge the details in his final posts, so i don't feel it is my place to get into the details.

please do not spread unfounded rumors. there are no sets left. perhaps you were the last to pick up an unclaimed set, but trust me... there are no more. i just talked to them at length about protegefest and rings and antennas today. again, please do not spread unfounded statements like this.

i didn't say you didn't receive yours. what part of "he doesn't have any more" don't you understand? i just talked to the bodde's today about antennas and gauge rings for protegefest. guess what? there are no more but a few antennas.

I just want to post a quick note to answer some questions on the status of rings. Truc is right we are COMPLETELY sold out! Dave needed to take a break and he had been planning on winding things down for quite some time. We owe a huge thank you to Truc for all his help and dedication to helping me keep things straight. Without him my sanity would have been lost a long time ago. I appreciate it more than words can say. So again sorry guys but we are out! Thanks to everyone who has gotten them.. it nice to know you all like them as much as you do. Zoomin Kelly

kelly and dave,
it's always been a pleasure and continues to be a pleasure. i'm glad i was able to help.

everyone else:
i guess this means that there will not be a comeback tour for the gauge rings.
